Fabrics deleted from project
Hi there, I'm still a fairly new user to Clo and I've noticed that my fabrics not currently in use get deleted from my project if I close and re-open the file (or if the application crashes and is recovered). Sometimes I may have spent an hour or more working on a fabric so it's a frustrating experience.
I'm used to applications such as Illustrator and Figma where, if you add a color to your palette, it stays there whether you use it or not. Am I thinking about fabrics in Clo the wrong way? What's the expected workflow or are there workarounds for this? Thanks!

Dear Mike, to keep project files as small as possible, unused fabrics and garment embellishments (buttons, topstitches, etc.) are deleted upon saving. To keep them in your project when saving, you can create a tiny archived pattern piece in your scene that has the fabrics and/or components applied to it. You can also save fabrics, buttons etc. as separate files outside of a project: https://support.clo3d.com/hc/en-us/articles/115000513648-Open-Save-Fabric-File
