Token Blueprint Removed

[Callipygian Moose]

Haven't used the programme in a few months but came back to it with a fresh idea only to discover a range of new blueprints size options, but no option for tokens? How do I create round tokens now? Why has the blueprint been removed?

Hi! 👋 In the latest version, the "Add blueprint" dropdown menu offers a selection of the most frequently used sizes for convenience, and you have the option to resize them to fit your needs.

To create round tokens, you can use PNG images with an alpha channel in the image panels. Simply add an image panel at the bottom with a non-squared shape image that has transparency in the background. This will ensure that the exported items also have that transparency.

The only current limitation with this approach is that bleeding support is unavailable for non-squared blueprints, unless you are exporting to PDF for printing and cutting, in which case the bleeding will work perfectly.

This method allows you to create any shape you desire for your items.

Really sorry to be a numb nuts but I don't quite understand what you are saying. Do you have a visual walk through of this process?

Hey Callipygian Moose! No worries at all – I'm here to help clarify this for you!
While we're always looking for ways to enhance the user experience, including potentially introducing non-square shapes as default options in the future, for now, let's focus on how you can achieve what you need with the current tools:

Think of it as adjusting the radius of the template you've chosen as your blueprint to get the shape you need. If you're aiming for a 75mm diameter token, start with a square card blueprint. Then, simply edit the radius to turn them into circles. Here's an example: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Uc7jUiiYvyMISuA91nlFsMRIJ8hxzbyz/view?usp=sharing

I hope this helps make the process clearer. Let me know if there's anything else I can do to assist you further!
