Thank you Mindy and the Gcu team.

I just have one suggestion, will you allow right click in the Margin Preview area?

bev

Hi Bev,
What would you use this for?

Since it's on the artist side only and you can only preview pid#'s that belong to you I don't see a reason why we'd need to keep right click disabled unless it is difficult to allow/disallow it on a page by page basis. We'll give it a look.

I would use it to check the pending cards. Maybe all cards.
Just lazy, would make it faster. I have already replaced a few.
Love the new tool.

Hmm, I'm not following you. Pls share with me how you'd use the right click on the new preview page. To copy the image? If it's something that will make work faster for most artists it's worth considering but I'm not clear on what exactly you're doing. Sorry cry

To copy the Product Id number of the card.

Then paste in the print/ margin preview area

Gotcha! Yes right click disabled has been reported on a few forum boards. We are in the process of working on that and realize it is a big time saver for artists. Hang in there while we work this out, thanks!

Just resubmitted. +++++++++++ Update ... just ran through the 200+ pending cards of mine and found 7 that would be sent back for edits due to safe zone violations. This tool is killer!

Ok, right click enabled so copy and paste those pid#'s to your heart's content!

This is fantastic Mindy! Cool

It's like looking in the mirror after taking the red-eye or pulling an all-nighter and seeing what you *really* look like! Shocked

I just spent the last 3 hours fixing existing cards where the images were too large for the card face.

I was just wondering if there could be an easier way to check the cards, without having to load each one individually? Or could the cards be 'scrolled' or 'skipped' through? For new designs, could the images be checked before they are loaded?

3 hours spent fixing cards. I have less than 100 cards up. Surely I'm not the only one with this concern. Huh
