API requests
Hello, there's a problem regarding development and usage suggestions. Will a quick and bulk usage feature be added via API in the future? If patterns can be created via API requests, it could see more commercial demand.
Hi, Should I have received a log in or link to create one? Also, when I purchased my package I didn't receive a confirmation so I bought another one!. No problem I am enjoying the site thus far. I would like to know how to keep track of how many charts I have left. Thanks!

Welcome!
I'm Dmitrii, the developer behind StitchMate. I read every post here and the most-upvoted ideas shape what I build next. For urgent bugs, email me at hello@stitchmate.app
Tracking threads in stash from Progress Tracker.
I would like to be able to see at a glance which threads I do and do not have in my stash while I am working. I do not yet have every colour I use, and so seeing what the next colour I do have, or need to go buy, without needing to switch back to the editor and checking one by one would be very useful. Maybe a small green or red dot somewhere on each thread panel. Or even more, a yellow dot to indicate that my current project will use more thread than I have marked in my stash. I can imagine the stash amounts getting auto-updated as progress is marked, as well. Thanks very much!
Built-in Progress Tracker
Mobile-friendly progress tracker: like PatternKeeper, but works inside Stitchmate on any platform: Android and iOS.
UX Improvement: Swap primary action button for pattern creation (Open in Editor instead of Download PDF)
Could you please consider changing the default primary action button after creating a pattern from an image? In 99.9% of cases, the generated pattern requires adjustments in the Edit mode. Right now, the main button is set to "Download PDF", which frequently causes me to click the wrong one by mistake. This forces me to go back through the menu, which disrupts my workflow and is quite inconvenient. Would it be possible to make "Open in Editor" the primary/main button instead of "Download PDF"?
Restore right-click context menu for thread color deletion
Could you please restore the ability to edit or delete thread colors with a right-click? Currently, this function is hidden under the Edit menu, which adds extra steps and slows down the workflow. Having a quick option to delete a color directly via the right-click context menu was much faster and more intuitive.
Ability to Rotate and Crop Reference Image
It would make it so much easier to be able to splice together ideas and trace when needed for different elements
Align pattern to top-left corner of the page
Hi! Right now, the pattern is placed right in the center of the page, which leaves huge empty spaces at the top and sides. Could you please update it so that the header and the pattern grid are aligned to the top-left corner of the page (with standard margins from the edges)? All remaining whitespace should stay below and to the right of the pattern. This should apply to both the page view and the generated/exported PDF.
Sliding Thread view in Progress
It feels odd that as I mark stitches in Progress, the number of stitches left counts down and the thread moves down the list, but the view doesn’t follow it. I feel like the thread list should scroll to keep the chosen thread in view.
Feature Request: Export Language Settings and OXS ZIP Bundle Support
Hi! I have two feature requests that would make the app even more useful. 1. Language settings for the Export feature Could you add a language selection option to the Export settings, allowing users to choose languages such as Spanish, German, French, and others? I tried changing the language to Spanish, but the Export page still appears in English. It would be great if the language setting also applied to the entire Export page, including its menus, buttons, labels, and other interface elements. 2. Include OXS files in ZIP bundles Would it be possible to include the OXS file format as an option when exporting a ZIP bundle? This would allow users to download the PDF patterns and their corresponding OXS files together in a single ZIP file, making it much more convenient for customers who use apps such as Cross Stitch Saga. Thank you for considering these suggestions! I really appreciate your work on improving the app.
Thread key - comments below the table
Dmitrii, from a UX perspective, it makes more sense to place comments below the table. This follows the natural reading flow (data first, commentary second) and prevents primary information from being pushed down off-screen.
Add page-specific (filtered) color legends for multi-page patterns
Feature Idea: It would be great to have a compact color legend on each page of the pattern. Ideally, this legend should be dynamic and only include the colors/symbols that actually appear on that specific page, rather than showing the full palette every time.
