I guess they chose to take the whole 2 weeks off…

I’m still hoping they fix the bugs in this addon so we can actually use it!

When customising in T shirt mode and if want an image on front then text to the back it doesnt work properly

When uploading an image first say to the front of a product, it will not then allow another logo of addition of std text, just keep getting timer…anybody else have this?

If you do the text first and then add the image it works ok



Thanks

john

AWESOME! I can’t wait to use this mod. It has been a long time waiting.

Any updates? Anxiously awaiting.



Is there a way to change from metric to imperial? I need inches and feed not mm.

Yes, it would be great to hear an update! There are only a couple of days left in the “second half of May” and it sure would be great to have a working version of this mod so we can test it live. :razz:

Dear idslamyou,



There’ll be inches in the new version.



Dear clips,



The release was planned for today, but because of some difficulties it will be delayed for a couple of days. We are sorry about that. Thank you for understanding.



Regards, Alt-team.

We are glad to announce that the Product designer add-on version 1.0.3 is available now. This version includes the bug fixes and several improvements:



* Generating of printable images was moved to the order details page in the administration panel. As a result speed of adding product to cart has increased.

* The ability to set sizes of the view was added for each product.

* The ability to disable images upload was added for each product.

* The ability to create circular canvases was added.

* The ability to set up sticker sizes by the customer was added.

* Preview images were added to order page and invoice.

* Horizontal layout was added.

* Restriction to the number of customer photos used in the design was added.

* Set of tools that can be enabled was enhanced.

* Inch unit was added.

* The ability to override clipart prices was added for each product.



Find out more about demo version and buy add-on you can on this page.

The Ratio(inch per pixel) option does not allow you to put in a decimal point. If I put 1 as the value the dimensions are too large. 1" per pixel is not going to work. That means my area that is 200 pixels wide is going to be 200 inches wide. Not going to work if the area should only be 8" wide. We need to be able to put decimal places in there.



EDIT: Just tried it by creating a new product with the default setting to .01 and it worked, but I cannot change it in the product settings window. If I try to add a decimal place there it inputs “NaN” into the box.

Unfortunately, we couldn’t reproduce this issue.

You can provide us with the temporary FTP access to your webstore so that we could understand what the problem is.

Is it possible to get the product designer to send the output as a PDF file. I have Roland Versaworks sign printing software that can print straight from .pdf.



Thanks

Yes, a PDF would work better for us too.

Is there going to be an update for 2.2.1? it doesnt work for me.

Hi Alt-Team,

I work mainly with customer's uploaded images.

I installed Demo of Product designer on CS 2.1.4



I have next problems:

  1. When customer upload images (5-6), resized and rotated them,

    on Order page → Product designer of admin side, some of the uploaded images

    have a different rotation from original ones.

    For example:

    File: top_flower.gif, Size: 258mm132mm, Rotation: 16

    File: top_flower.gif, Size: 195mm
    100mm, Rotation: 4294967246 (wrong position?)

    File: top_flower.gif, Size: 249mm128mm, Rotation: 4294967243 (wrong position ?)

    File: top_flower.gif, Size: 294mm
    151mm, Rotation: 60

    File: top_flower.gif, Size: 229mm*118mm, Rotation: 4294967276 (wrong position?)



    On invoice page position of uploaded images shown correctly.

    This problem does not appeared when I work with clipart.
  2. If on settings, “text panel” button was disabled and customer uploaded

    their image, after few clicks on resize and rotate, image freezes in size.
  3. If customer use few copies of one image, for example 5 copies of one

    clipart(image), but in different sizes and sizes have a very small

    difference in measurements, how do I know which is what. It's no numbers, no

    X Y position and I don't know in what order it was made.



    Also:

    1)Is it possible to have a button “Print design” on product page for a

    customer?
  4. Is it possible to display different clipart for a different user groups?
  5. Or is it possible to have a Addon2, 3, 4… installed on one cs-cart for a different user groups?







    Thanks,

    Alex

We can put PNG image inside PDF. Do you like this solution?

Worth a try. Most printer rip software can generate straight from PDF so would be a good addition and sell point to your addon if it works
