Is it possible to use the unique card back layout to make double sided cards that are linked to each other? So that when you update csv data both sides are updated?
@DextrousGameDesign
@DextrousGameDesign Сағат бұрын
Yep of course, just put the csv link in the back component like you do the front

When I put my card images onto the card design in MPC, the image looks so blurry when there are no warnings. Are these normal and okay and will the card be printed in the original quality?

Hmm honestly it's impossible for me to tell without looking at the pngs. Do the raw pngs that you uploaded to MPC look blurry? If not I reckon you're fine :)

Hello and congratulations for this fantastic tool. I have the problem that changing the layout always resets the component values ​​(different values ​​for each card obviously) I would like that when I switch layout the values ​​set with the previous layout remain. it's possible? if yes, how? Thanks in advance!
@DextrousGameDesign
@DextrousGameDesign 13 күн бұрын
Hmmm I wonder if what is happening here is your new layout doesn't have exactly the same zone names? If it has the same zone names you should be able to switch layouts like changing clothes on a character and have everything stay the same. If you're still having problems with this, hit us up in the discord and we can help you :)

Hi, I chose Tarot Card size for all my layouts for more space for artwork, but have realised that tarot size is a logistical nightmare for printing. Is there any way to change the layout size, or will I have to start over?
@DextrousGameDesign
@DextrousGameDesign 13 күн бұрын
Hey yep you can just change the layout size. Click the base zone (card_background) and go to the positioning tab and you'll be able to change the size. You'll have to drag zones into the correct position but it's pretty easy.

Please let me select layers in layout editor and copy them to another template in the same position, i hate using the zone clipboard option, i cant even copy few layers as one zone to clipboard. Every time i need to copy every single layer to clipboard and paste them to existing layer. I cant delete every clipboard because bin icon not working, i can only delete few of them. It can be rlly good system to creating games, not only for prototypes. I pay designer sub, but without that options i cant continue to create my game. Im using more than 30 layouts and editing them is soo painful right now. I cant change one grouped layers and copy them to another layout. "Szabrownick" user here

The red line is where the card will be cut - hence you need to set the card up with bleed before exporting to png. Watch my bleed videos for more details on this.

Great application. Any plans to make some Board Maker Tutorials in the future. I could use a bit of help with this.

This would have been very helpful a few weeks ago, didn't realise you had a video on this. Figured it out myself by just fiddling and asking chatgpt for help. I actually manually copied out all the data into individual tabs of the sheet. Also thought at one stage that I needed to have separate workbooks for different components, thankfully through trial and error realised what you were showcasing above. Very impressed with Dextrous though, what a fantastic job you did enabling these types of features and compatabilities.

I can't for the life of me get this problem I am having solved, I hope you can help! I use the default "Poker" size preset in Dextrous (3.5x2.5'') so (88.9x63.5mm) Export it (save to PDF) using the same dimensions and 100% scale, no margin, A4 paper, but for some reason the exported card is exactly 1 cm (10mm) shorter in length. Can you help me in the right direction to solve this issue? Thank you so much.

For anyone that is having this same issue, it had something to do with the conversion from US Letter to A4. I exported the cards as US Letter, and used the US Letter preset in the HP Smart app, no fit to page stuff just 100% scale, and now it worked. Praise the Lord!
@DextrousGameDesign
@DextrousGameDesign 2 ай бұрын
Glad to hear you got it working! Yep you just have to match the page size you're exporting Dex from with the printer's page size. As you discovered, this is the key bit: "no fit to page stuff just 100% scale" Also set margins to 'none' not auto or default. Damn printers always try to help you out and inevitably shrink stuff :/
