I'm looking for a Photoshop Plug In that will let me make a recurring pattern from an image based on the 17 possible 2 dimensional patterns on a planar surface.

To make it easier: Winkelmann’s screenshot shows a Script option from the Fill dialog.

      Could you elaborate? 

       

      Have you checked out the Library Pattern creation freatures (»Create from image«)?

        Thank you for replying. That's very helpful but it limits you to point groups where you are rotating the image around a fixed point, or a simple repetition of the pattern like a p2 symmetry group in the above linked example.

        Hey Creepyman. 

        What do you want to use the pattern for, and how much of the original image do you want to keep?

        You know about "pattern making" using default Photoshop selection? -> https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/using/creating-patterns.html

        and https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/using/generate-pattern-using-pattern-maker.html

        Thank you for replying. At one time there was a plug in for photoshop which allowed you to create patterns with these parameters:

        The pattern maker as it is in photoshop is somewhat limited. I was hoping the plug in was still around but I haven't been able to find it.
