FAQs

1. Why are my designs not accurately represented after being exported?

If you come across any of the following issues while using Mockplus RP:
  • inconsistencies between the fonts of exported text layers and those in the editing interface.

  • some content missing after exporting certain layers.

  • changes in property settings after export. 

These problems may arise due to browser compatibility issues. To minimize such potential compatibility challenges, we highly recommend utilizing Google Chrome as your preferred browser. By using Google Chrome, you can enhance the overall experience and mitigate the aforementioned concerns, ensuring that your designs are accurately represented and exported without any unexpected discrepancies.

2. What is the maximum dimension for an exported image?

The maximum dimensions for an exported image, taking into account magnification, is 260,000,000 pixels.  This includes a maximum width and height of 30,000 pixels each. If an image exceeds these limits, it will be automatically scaled down proportionally to fit within the maximum values.

3. What should I do if the browser page becomes unresponsive when exporting large content?

You can consider the following steps:
  • Give the browser some time to recover and respond: Exporting large content can put a strain on the browser, causing temporary unresponsiveness. Wait for a few moments to see if it resumes normal functionality.

  • Export in smaller batches: Instead of exporting all the content at once, consider exporting a smaller amount of content at a time. This can help reduce the load on the browser and prevent it from becoming overwhelmed.
