I made an alpha pattern (bracelet) but it got declined because it is upright vertically, I need to rotate it so it will be horizontally(since it will look better like that in the preview) but I have no idea how. Can anyone help?

You need to do that manually. I recommend you start a new pattern and then draw the pattern again but this time upright. There's unfortunately no simple solution.

I'm not sure if this will work but you could try taking a screenshot of the pattern, rotating it and then using the 'alpha from image' to turn the screenshot into an actual pattern.

If you ever want to use the other method in the future, you need to do a few specific things:1. Set the height and width to be exactly the height and width of the pattern you’re rotating 2. Set the number of colors to be exactly the number of colors in the pattern you’re rotating. I think it will still work if you set it to be higher than that, but I usually just set it to the exact number 3. Select “preserve hard edges” 4. Deselect “trim image” The pattern will still sometimes come out a little messed up, but this method usually works pretty well. |
