I knew this was possible in AI and was reluctant to purchase add on bells and whistles.Īnd Carlos, the suggestion to record the steps into actions for each rhinestone size is so exciting and practical, can't wait to give it a try. Creating a rhinestone template with Silhouette Studio is an easy process. There are many rhinestone software packages out there for the apparel industry, that basically sit on top of existing programs such as coreldraw.

Wow, Carlos and Jet, you have no idea how happy I am right now!! You have both addressed exactly what I have been trying to do.Ĭarlos, I can use your solution when I want to create a rhinestone design for outlining objects, and Jet, you hit on exactly what I have been trying to do.
