Maintaining original colors

In uploading pixel art, I’ve had a hard time sometimes maintaining the original colors. They don’t look especially close to the eye (e.g. shades of gray), but end up getting merged for my pattern when uploading. The side bar shows what I think is the correct number of original colors (11), but then a higher number in the middle (28) and fewer colors to edit (7 - this is how many end up in the pattern)- is there a way to force them into separate colors in the app so I can assign colors I want and merge manually ones I don’t?

    Hi Julia,

    and welcome!

    Thanks for noticing this issue with Pixel Art exports.


    I took it seriously and redesigned the Pixel Art color controls to make them work as one would expect.


    Now there’s 2 clear controls: 1. map to library or use original colors and 2. how many colors to keep.


    The numbers now all match each other - overall I think this panel is now much more intuitive to use.

    Hope you’ll like it and have a great weekend.

      Oops, I apologize: I prepared these fixes for pixel art but didn’t actually update Stitchmate website.

      Now it’s live, properly.
