Align To

Use Case:
Ideal for garment grading review — after alignment, you can check whether the grading values in a single direction are correct and verify that lines corresponding to each size remain properly shaped.

Exporting AI Files with Multiple Sizes

When exporting AI files, a new pop-up allows users to choose between single-size or multi-size export:

• Single-size: Exports vector paths for the current size only.

• Multi-size: Exports vector paths for all sizes.

• Note: If multi-size vector paths are modified, alignment will no longer be available.

Operation Method:
File ▶ Export AI ▶ Multi-size

Application Scenarios:
Designers can add texture patterns to different sizes (S/M/L) in AI. With the multi-size export feature, they can export vector files for all sizes at once, avoiding the tedious process of exporting single sizes and manually aligning them.
