Saving live artwork in Pattern Editor. Oh wait, you can't!


ok, had opportunity use cs6 create pattern. of artwork contained blended symbols. when went save pattern, tells me symbols , blends expanded. so, how supposed me? in cs5 can build artwork, using tools choose , drag swatch panel. source artwork remains intact blends , symbols. better yet, can save source artwork symbol , update pattern directly symbol editor window. , more bizarre fact cannot edit symbol while in "pattern edit mode", though "edit symbol" button visible , active within pattern mode. that's goofy.

 

the cs6 pattern editor cool, if won't retain symbols , blends find big disappointment. missing something?

create artwork in advance, open pattern editor. artwork kept.

or: copy artwork before leaving pattern editor. paste file.
