Expand artboard and resample texture automatically

[JPBERUTTI910]

I was watching Infinite Pulp Paper Textures Tutorial and at some point the show how you can resize the artboard, hit enter and the layers with a texture will resample and adjust automatically to the new artboard size.

I tried placing some of my patterns on artboards, resize, but nothing happens.
How can i make this work with any image or texture?

here's the video with the example on how it works (around 2:10 mins) 

thanks in advance.

Hi @JPBERUTTI910,

Placing standard image layers will not automatically rescale when an artboard is re-sized, this requires either a Fill or Pattern layer that has been imported from Photo for artboard re-sizing to work as shown in the video.

i see. Can you walk me through the process with one example, because i have no idea how to do it.

No Problem,

1. I first created a blank new document in Photo and added a new Fill layer by going to Layers > New Fill Layer and gave the fill layer a bitmap image and then saved the document (See Attached Test Artboard Fill.afphoto)

2. I then created a blank new Artboard in Designer and opened the afphoto fill document.

3. Copy the Fill layer and paste it onto the artboard.

4. When I re-scale the artboard to a larger size the fill layer automatically adjusts to the size of the artboard.

 

Hope this helps 🙂
