Credit Usage

When to Use

  • Quality checking seamless patterns before production
  • Verifying repeat files from external designers
  • Testing different repeat layouts (block vs half-drop)

Pro Tips

💡

Green seam energy = seamless, red = visible seams

💡

Check all three layouts (block, half-drop, half-brick)

💡

Free tool — use it as many times as needed

What to Expect

Real-World Examples

Pre-Production QC

Before sending to the rotary printer, a pattern was verified at 4x4 grid with seam lines visible. Scored 98% seamlessness — ready for production.

Compare Repeat Methods

A floral pattern was tested in full repeat vs half-drop. Full repeat showed grid alignment, while half-drop created a more natural staggered diagonal flow.
