Question

Slices create from guides doesn't match guides

Hello,

 

I am having problems using the Slices>Create from Guides which do not line up.

It's only 1px difference but this causes a big problem for my work as my images need to be the exact width as they are used to code up an email.

 

Here is the top right hand corner of the artboard with the guides: ( 1440px wide )

 

And here is the same view after using Slices>Create from Guides:

As you can see, it is not lined up with the guide on the right. When I export the image it ends up being 1439px wide.

So I end up having to open it in Photoshop and modify the canvas size to 1440px. Then save it again but this is time consuming and beats the purpose of the tool.

 

There are definitely no other hidden guides in my file. 

I also made sure that the X and Y position of my artboard are rounded numbers and aligned to top left:

 

Many thanks in advance!

 

Isa

Hello Anshul,

 

Thank you for your reply. To answer your questions:

 

 

I did have a look at the suggestions in the post you mentioned. The 1st response suggests using artboards for each slice which is a way around it but not very practical for my work. I design emails so need to see them and share them as a whole. This would mean I would have to seperate each banner from the email in different artboard which doesn't help with designing it and makes the process more time consuming. The second reply talks about creating a pattern of a vector, but I am not working with vectors, I am working with high res images and text.

 

I hope you can help me resolve the issue.

Many thanks for your time!

 

Best,

Thanks for sharing the file. Could you please share the missing link images? So we can check it out properly. Also, please share a small video of your workflow of creating slices and demonstrating the issue. It would be really helpful for us.
