basically i'm was trying to make it so that my pattern only had so many colors so i changed some other colors that were similar to a color that was already in the pattern hoping that when i saved it they would merge but now i just have too many colors and i cant submit it to the site because it has the same colors

Usually when the colours don't merge and I have a ton of them, I copy the text for the alpha pattern on the first page and paste it into MS word
then I do 'find and replace' for all the colours I wanna merge ('replace' in the main Word menu)

So if say I have black as colour 'b' in my pattern and I have a ton of similar shades listed as c,d,e etc, then I'll find 'c' and replace with 'b' and then I just do that for all the duplicates

once you find and replace all the colours w the correct letter then just paste that text into the text box and BB and it should be fixed

lmk if that makes sense / if you get through with it!

@Zaan_13 there's a way to do it more easily

1) Change the colours you want to merge to the exact same colour codes in alpha and click save

2) Go to draw alpha and click save there too

3) Go back to alpha and the colours should have merged

@halokiwi I completely forgot abt that way - Thanks for mentioning it! 😅 I usually use my convoluted method when uploading alpha from image and there are way too many colours to adjust
