Treehouse Guest TeacherIn what step does it fail? Can you get to the "Export Arboards" window when opening the script? Is it failing after you hit export? I need a little bit more info before I can pinpoint exactly what is going wrong.

Front End Web Development Techdegree Student 19,022 Pointsit all works out just as in the video the arts get selected and am able to put in @2x and 200% but after hitting export and going into my sprites folder they would be nothing there.

Treehouse Guest TeacherDid you make sure to choose the right output directory? Use the "Choose" button in the Export window for the output directory and navigate to the correct folder where you would like your sprites to be saved. Then try exporting again.

Treehouse Guest TeacherOK, Kelvin. I think i know what the issue is. You need to name EACH artboard in order for them to be recognized by the script as exportable. So hit "shift + O" on your keyboard and then up in the top app bar where it says "Name", that's where you can rename your artboards. Then try exporting again. It should work.
