White Line Problems Creating patterns in Adobe Capture (read all threads, no solution!)

I have tried toggling the anti aliasing option and the lines will not dissapear. Plus I have tried to export with the setting on Art Optimized. 

 

My only workaround is that I can place a bitmap pattern tile and that is the only way I can avoid the white lines but that then limits me to whatever image the bitmap pattern decides to be in terms of sizing. With the original pattern placed correctly in Illustrator I can scale and rotate as needed. But with the bitmap I can only do so much. 

 

Is there any way to change the bitmap pattern tile sizing. I have tried pattern options and nothing works. Would honestly like to fix the original problem of the pattern showing white lines in the program and upon export. 

 

First 3 images are of the pattern correctly placed (not bitmap), the last image is of the bitmap showing no lines.

Ok I have changed the pattern width and height to an even 50 on both. It has now cleared the line but made the pattern no longer seamless. 

 

Just exported art optimized and the lines are gone but once again the pattern is now unaligned.  


What happens if you don't just change the pattern width and height, but scale the pattern so that it matches?

So can you open the pattern in Illustrator's pattern editor and check if it is clean?

The patterns I create in Capture will not allow for me to toggle any options to change the pattern (shown in picture below). I can also not add to swatches, as I guess it is already in my library via capture. 

 

However, if I place a bitmap pattern tile down. I can toggle options in the pattern options. The artwork looks placed correctly to me, have a look (second picture)

Plus how come when I place the bitmap pattern tile it shows it with no lines and seamless. But upon placing a pattern the right way I have to change the width and height for it to show correctly? 

 

Could this be a bug within Adobe Capture and patterns should be made directly in illustrator?


I don't use Adobe Capture, but I guess the problem is introduced during the conversion from pixels to vectors.

Pixels cannot contain fractional values, there is no such thing as a fractional pixel, but vectors can.

This was all created in illustrator by the way. Patterns created in Adobe Capture, and am trying to work/export them in illustrator
