Hi Everyone!

I created a stripe pattern in AI. The pattern looks fine by itself. However, after I rotate the pattern, lines become jagged. I did the rotation by Transform->Rotate->Rotate Patterns. Please see the before rotation and after rotation image below. Have any of you came across this issue? I would really appreciate it if someone can help me!!!!!!

after rotation:

Correct answer rcraighead

Is the pattern vector or raster? Do you have "Anti-alias Artwork" turned ON in Preferences?

Recreated your pattern and no jagged edges. Do you have "Pixel Preview" on by chance?

Try to switch the preview between GPU and CPU; Cmd E (or Ctrl E for Win) and see if it looks better.

Hi Ton,

I tried switching to CPU, and it still looks the same.

Thank you for your suggestion~

Thank you rcraighead for looking into my issue!!

The pattern was created in AI using rectangular tool and the pattern option tool. I guess it is vector? I had Anti-alias Artwork on and Pixel Preview was off.

If you scale the pattern to 30% of the original size (pattern only), do you still get the correct pattern?

That is only a screen issue.
