Orchids Release V1.21
Our web platform is faster, more intuitive and takes Graphic Effects and Look Development capabilities to the next level, ultimately designed to improve a Users’ experience.
The highlighted features on this release are:
- Enhanced Graphic Effects features:

- Improved functionality on the Share Tab:
- Embedded Links: Choose which variants to include in an embedded link to publish on your ecommerce website.
- A more user-friendly Create Tab:
- Variants: Update all variants at once with the push of a button. Users no longer need to resave each variant one-by-one after edits have been made to the Product Setup.
- The Product Viewer: now stays stationary when switching between Product Tabs, or choosing different variants, making it easier for Pro Users to do look-development tasks such as material and scene editing.

Orchids Release V1.20
- Graphic Effects: Commonly used print effects can be saved to the Orchids Library to be leveraged on any graphic throughout the Organization by other team members.

- Create Effects – Effects can also be created from scratch by uploading a graphic and defining the effect like stitches, grain or texture with our “Detail Maps.”
