Viewing Card and Output Not Matching Blueprint
Hi,

Hopefully I'm not posting about an issue already posted here, but I tried to look and there are a lot of posts. I wanted to make sure this was known.

When I am working in the blueprint, the card looks exactly how I want. But sometimes when I back out to the Collection view, the text and icons in the blueprint and cards are misaligned. If I go back in to edit the blueprint, they are fine. Once I get that fixed (by deleting and remaking some layers or something), I go to output the collection and the back of the card is only showing half of the image I put on there, at the bottom. But some other card sets using similar blueprints are showing the output fine.

If there is a fix to this, please let me know. If not, hopefully you guys plan to fix that.

Other than that, so far, I really like this program!

Thanks

Yeah, we know that the text panels sometimes are a bit cumblesome. That's because we were using an old Unity version initially when the program was created, is a problem we dragged from the first versions of CC. Hopefully we can do something about that in the following updates.


But the problem with the half of the image in the back of your cards shouldn't happen. Can you check if you are using padding in that image panel ? In the version 2.8.0 the padding was fixed and the previous values need to be updated. Maybe that is your problem.

Hi, I'm having the same unaligned text issue as above and to clarify on your first point, does this mean that printing a Card with the misaligned text should come out as normal or is this a bug that means we can't save our cards to the correct format?

Is not a problem related to saving the projects (that is always working fine). The problem is that the text panels are rendered each time with sightly different sizes (because of floating point arithmetic) and the text is very sensible when it's calculating where to render the next character, so sometimes the text detects as he has reached the end of the line and split a sentence into another line.

Ah thanks, yeah printing seemed fine. I noticed a trick as well that I could go back into the Blueprint when it was misaligned and just move the Margin by 1 point, then back again and Save it. That realigns it back to normal.

I am not using any padding on the back of the card. I have the latest version of course, 2.9.6. Also, if I am in the collection screen and click the broken card, and click "flip card", the back is also only showing half of the image there. But in the blueprint it is fine, just some more detail. Any other ideas?

Sorry, can you send us a minimal project file where you reproduce the problem ?

Hi, the last update should fix the bug:

https://steamcommunity.com/games/523600/announcements/detail/3742991449199534436

You need to open the project and enter in edit blueprint mode for each blueprint your project contains.

The update sadly did not fix this problem for me. i have the same problem with every card i try including the showcase projects.

i have the same problem

Welp, this issue is still there and making this program unusable. Id like an update on when you think you can fix it.

I'm working in more updates in this moment but sadly I don't have enough info about this problem atm (in other words, I can't reproduce the problem).

Please if you're using the latest version of CC, send your project files (or minimal concept project that reproduces the problem) using this guide:
