Hi!
I've created many patterns using Adobe Capture on Photoshop. All good and work great (i.e. seamless) until I use the "Pattern View" option. In that view, the patterns are not seamless at all. Does anyone know what's going on there? Is there a workaround?
I'm imagining if I send the PNG version to someone who doesn't use Photoshop or is not design-software savvy (i.e. he/she just copies and pastes the PNG file next to each other), he/she would have to do so many steps to match the tiles. I would like to avoid that if possible.

Could you please post a screenshot taken at View > 100% with the pertinent Panels (Toolbar, Layers, Options Bar, …) visible?

I've done a further test. But first, I have to clarify that the view's name is "Pattern Preview" not "Pattern View".
This is what I did:
The result is not seamless.

Have you bothered reading what View > Pattern Oreview does?

»Once you enable Pattern Preview, you'll notice the workspace area outside of the canvas boundary will repeat the contents on the canvas.«
So if the canvas you applied a seamless Pattern to does not have the same pixel dimensions it naturally will not be seamless anymore.
