How do you create a seamless pattern for ceramic tiles?

If a customer decides to buy a set of ceramic tiles with a seamless pattern the gap between the tiles will distort the pattern. (Gap as in the place where the grout will be applied).
Is there are trick to adjust the pattern to make the tiles to fit well together?

No tricks - they are simply installed with minimal grout lines using non-sanded grout. If the grout color matches the tile field or dominant edge color closely, the lines will be unremarkable looking. Google Moroccan cement tiles and look at installation photos. You really don’t notice the grout lines if you aren’t looking for them.

Thanks. I just tested a seamless tile with fill/fit settings int the Design Tool.

In this case fit and fill are the same.

Hello! I think if your image is a perfect square then fit and fill will be the same, It will be awesome to have a preview of a group of tiles together to see the final result or to have tile option as in wrapping paper.
