Symmetry Tool

Is the only way to do symmetry is to make a duplicate and flip it manually through the transform tool? 

 

Is there any update on when there will be a real symmetry tool in Fresco? Thanks

Hello @guy307573325sxl!

Thanks for reaching out. As of now, the Symmetry tool is not available in Fresco. However, I have good news for you. The product team is aware of the demand for this feature, and they have started working on it. You can show your support and stay updated on the progress by upvoting the feature request on the Adobe Fresco UserVoice page. Here's the link:

I saw that the Symmetry tool was released in June of 2024 - but is it only on the iPad? Why the delay in getting to desktop / Windows? Is there a timeline on this?

To create symmetrical designs in Adobe Fresco without a dedicated symmetry tool, the most common method is to create one half of your design, duplicate it, and then manually flip and align it using the transform or mirror tools. This approach allows you to achieve symmetrical results, but it can be somewhat time-consuming and may require manual adjustments to ensure perfect symmetry.

The Symmetry drawing option is listed in the Upcoming features. When it will be added is anyones guess. Adobe won't give time frames. That way they can't be held accountable if they don't release something 'on time'.

I'm a Software Developer myself, so I get this mentality, but it's been on the upcoming features list for well over a year at this point from what others have told me (I started using in October 2022 and it's been on the list since then). If true, it's just unethical and irresponsible. It would be better to just surprise folks when they know they're getting ready to release the feature. What they're currently doing doesn't match anyone's common definition of "upcoming" so it seems like a marketing ploy because they know it's a feature everyone wants. I use all the Adobe CS apps for my creative needs, but I'm seriously considering a switch over to procreate for this one feature alone. It's just painful to do symmetry drawings otherwise (e.g., daggers, glasses, patterns).
