Blanks

A blank is an undecorated garment you can put artwork on. Blanks are what products are built from.

​

Adding a blank

New blank offers two routes: Filter the list by category, brand, supplier or decoration method, and use View archived blanks for ones you have archived. Select blanks to reveal a toolbar with Edit, Download CSV and Actions, which archives, restores or deletes them.

​

Editing a blank

A blank opens on the same tabs as a product: All, Basic information, Media, Product variants, Pricing and Advanced. The panels on the right are what make it a blank rather than a product. Decorate this blank holds the Decoration tool button. It is unavailable on a blank whose supplier has discontinued the style. Below it sits the placement editor. Pick a placement and drag the box on the garment to move or resize where decoration lands. It is not just a preview: your changes save with the blank, and because they are stored against the supplier style, every blank and product you build from that style inherits them. Select preview artwork puts a design on the garment so you can judge the box against real artwork. It changes nothing on its own. Apply, beside it, takes you to that artwork’s Apply to products for this blank.

Placements

The placement list is where artwork can go, and what it offers depends on the garment and on which views the blank has images for. A tee offers full front, full back, back tag, left and right chest and the sleeves. Caps, beanies, bags and bottoms have their own. Most placements have both a flat and an on-model version, so you can preview a design as it will photograph. The link above the garment edits that list. It reads Manage placements while the view you are on already has placements, and Add placement when it has none.

Decorating a blank

Decoration tool places artwork on a blank and creates the products from it. See Decoration tool.

Collections

The Collections tab groups blanks you use together, so you can pull in a whole set rather than picking each one.
