Affinity Designer Tutorial - Repeating Patterns, Bitmap Pattern Fills & Print on Demand Sites

[@fantasyprone5054]

I just made my very first pattern tile in Affinity yesterday. I put style on it even 🤭I went step by step of your guideline 🎉 I am so grateful for the effort you put in here. Thank you so very much ☺️🙏

I agree, you are a great teacher. Your tutorial format is very clear and informative. Thank you for taking your time to teach. Affinity / serif needs people like you to push the software forward. I'm 41 and getting into graphic design. From New York 🙏🏾

You are a good teacher. It’s not easy to begin using a new app, but your teaching style is clear. No flailing around layers and confusing the viewer. Appreciate it a lot! I’m actually learning on the ipad UI first but I still watch this to understand the AD features in general. As soon as I upgrade my Macbook, I’ll learn this desktop UI too.

@@ArtistWright Have you done for colouring in, I find this very tricky in Affinity, I did get a bit further with the pen then the fill, but gee it's not easy like procreate with drop and drag ..

Procreate is a raster program as far as I know. With vectors you just choose the fill colour. Or add a gradient. Check out some of my other tutorials (the one with the orange) they might make it easier for you to understand

I'm a complete NOVICE when it comes to Graphic Design. My aim is to learn how to create seemless digital pattern papers for sale on Etsy. I would love if you could one day show us how to do things like Gingham patterns, Seemless spots etc, and then show how to upload them to a store for Customers to download. New Subbie! Great video.

I will be getting AD very shortly so will follow you for some tips. I have AP which has some of AD's capabilities albeit limited. One neat trick is in AP you can make some amazing patterns, each one totally different from the previous ones (one a second or more if you really want to) which can be used as repeating/fill patterns in seconds. I know it is not possible in AD (the command isn't there) but if you haven't tried it you should.

Thanks Norman! Yes I have used that trick in AP its really cool!

Heya ArtistWright love your video your really clear with what to do, I have been searching for a video like this for ages, I am stuck at the point you explain to clip the shape into the rectangle at the 4:10 minute mark moving your cursor right to drop it in, mine doesn't let me go right. If I hover over the rectangle icon on the left in layers and drop the shape that way it lets me do it but later on I am not able to delete the circles altogether please advise me? I hope you see my comment and can help

[@ArtistWright]

Hello Hells Surprise! Are you using version 2 by any chance? If you are, instead of dragging the shape you want to clip, down and to the right you just drag it directly onto the other layer (in the layers panel)

[@ArtistWright]

Also once that shape is clipped inside of the other shape, the way to delete that clipped shape is to either tap on the drop down arrow in the layers panel on the actual shape and that will reveal what's clipped inside. Or you can select the layer that contains clipped shaped then double click to select whatever shape is inside.hooe I've explained that well enough

[@hellssurprise9338]

@@ArtistWright Thanks for getting back to me, somethings not right here with my software something else has gone wrong. Is there this version of Affinity Designer to download and where if so? I'm using version 2, I know some software companies let users download previous versions. It doesn't help that I've been trying to learn other techniques in other videos aha, I'm sure my software is in a pickle now, if there isn't a previous version to download how can I totally entirely reset the software back to when I first downloaded it? Thanks for helping me I love the look of this technique and trying my best to do it, fingers crossed for me I find a way aha

[@ArtistWright]

@@hellssurprise9338 I use version 2 now, ive not found anything wrong with it so far in terms of bugs etc. Im not sure what is wrong with yours, perhaps your computer has something to do with it. The official Affinity Forum is a great resource of information and you can ask Affinity for help too

[@hellssurprise9338]

@@ArtistWright This is version 2? With it being from a year ago I thought mine was out of date to yours? I've tried factory reset so will try again, keep your fingers and toes crossed for me 😃

[@Pyxelles]

Thanks for the excellent video. I had already been doing repeat patterns with symbols from another video but instead of three art boards I just use two- like in your video artboards 1 and 3- it gives me a better live preview when creating the pattern. However, I was curious to see what you did differently with regards to creating the clipping mask to see if you also had white lines. As soon as the clipping mask is created, those pesky white lines persist no matter what I do even after exporting it as a PNG file. It's especially visible when you have a design with a very dark or black background. I've seen a few complaints about this in the AD forums, so it might be a bug, I don't know but have you any ideas how to get rid of them? Thanks

[@ArtistWright]

Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment. I can also see those pesky lines on Affinity, but each time I have exported the file to jpeg I don't see the lines anymore, if you still see them after export then you need to make sure you have close the gap.

[@wreford07]

Great video. Thanks. Could I ask, how is this different from creating a tile layer?

[@ArtistWright]

This design will repeat as you have set it up to do that. You could print two of them out and place them next to each other and it will match up. The design on the tile layer can be resized bigger or smaller and moved around the artboard, meaning that it's unlikely to repeat if you carry out any of those actions. Hope that makes sense

[@wreford07]

@@ArtistWright I think so? Lol

[@ArtistWright]

I definitely could have worded that better lol!

[@Lilgyrlie1]

@ArtistWright Hi, what version of Affinity are you using? The reason I ask is because my artboard 1 has a blue square in the middle of it and I can’t get mines to do what yours is doing @6:44. I can not double tap on artboard 1 and add more to the layers panel. And my circle does not move around the light pink board nor is it synced with the other circle. The whole rectangle and circle moves and the other rectangle or circle doesn’t move with it like yours did. I have Affinity Designer 2.

[@ArtistWright]

Hi there this is V1 in the video. I use V2 now but its still the same. I think you may have missed a step in my video, specifically looking at the layer stack (bottom right) , when I create a new shape (the circle) you can see that this is now on its own layer. Watch the video again on how I'm using 'symbols'. If used as I show, both let's say circles will move in sync with each other.

[@user-zl5nt7ms6n]

Hi there, I can't follow your steps to draw a T-shirt successfully. Could you show the detail that how to draw a T-shirt in other video? Thanks!

Thank you very much for your reply. I am a beginner, this video is my first lesson in Affinity Designer. You're drawing T shirt so fast, I am not keeping up. I down't know how to finish that part of the crew neck. There is a little bit regret! Have a good day!

[@chariots8x230]

Thank you for this video! I have a question. What size would you recommend the file to be for larger items such as duvets, comforters & shower curtains?

[@ArtistWright]

13500x13500 pixels is the max size on Redbubble. Personally I'd go 10000 or less

[@jtm1096]

On the 2nd copy of the third artboard, i think you forgot to reverse the first dragged image and then copying those two and flipping it for the bottom. It works for this mirrored design; but f you were to make a more complicated pattern that 'crosses the border' (but a front of a non-mirrored design on the left and tail side on opposite right, so that the two halves make a whole on the mirrored pattern) for example if you swap the first artboard tile from a tile to a "drawing amplifier" like for mandalas and other types of multi-symbol imprints. The drag-copy at 15:30 mark: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eXTFYoash714a7c Fantastic tutorial btw!

[@ArtistWright]

Yes as you say this will work for more simplistic designs where the elements themselves are mirrored so to speak. Check out my other videos on patterns too. Cheers JT

[@invalidude]

So basically symbols are real-time Photoshop smart objects, right? This is cool!

[@ArtistWright]

Pretty much yeah. They are like linked clones

[@jocelynsperdutoart1116]

So as I am playing around with this, I start to see the tiniest bit of space in between the 4 images on Artboard 2. To combat this, I went to Artboard 1, selected the rectangle and added a stroke to the rectangle in a matching color. I used 0.5. It seemed to make the ‘spaces’ disappear in the Artboard 2 arrangement. I do wonder how this will impact the pattern overall when I am manipulating it with a bitmap.

[@ArtistWright]

Hi there! I wouldn't add a stroke to it. Just double check the transform tab (like I mention in the video at 07:27). You might see a faint line between the squares but they are not actually there. Just export a jpeg and you will see. If it turns out there is a gap, then you need to check that transform tab.
