Pattern scaling :
1) to scale obj with pattern=
edit- preference- general- transform pattern tile check the box
2) To scale pattern not object =
Object- Transform- scale ( uncheck the box named Transform object-and play with values)
2) To scale, rotate pattern not object =

Best tutorial I have come across for patterns.

[@KarlKreationHD]

Hello! Great tutorial! You speak so calmly it’s really nice to follow along.
However, I feel there’s something missing…Not in your tutorial, it’s great but with the pattern tool itself.
Maybe there’s and i don’t know about it but i think a mesh like mesh gradient would be a great thing for patterns as well.
This way you could wrap up an object with a pattern perfectly. I don’t know if it makes any sense but i while watching your tutorial i kept thinking about it.
Have a great day!

Great tutorial! Thank you!

[@envatotuts]

You're very welcome!

[@pcarlini2611]

Hello, great tutorial. I’m hoping that you might be able to question. Is there a way to remove a part of a pattern once it is created. I loved the pattern you’ve created but would like to use it where an edge of my design is made up or finished with the rounded edge of the elements in the pattern.

[@sweethomes674]

Excellent 😊

[@nabilnahian8560]
