      Is it a way to automate this in VS?

      There is no way to automate this at this time.
      For now, the pattern tile must be designed so that the edges match perfectly.

      Are there apps that do this automatically?
      I'm not sure if this is possible for any kind of tile design.

        ...

        This can be done by having the pattern content in the document and creating a pattern style (not preset) using the "Reference Content" mode enabled.
        Then editing the content object previews all uses of the pattern.

        @VectorStyler would it be possible to describe the needed Steps again in a little more detail how to proceed?
        I don't quite understand the steps required.

        My steps were:
        create the pattern objects
        select all and then
        Object > Object Role > Tile Pattern Contents.

        Then, with the pattern objects still selected, Styles > Create Styles > Pattern Styles.

        But then what needs to be set in the create pattern style Panel?

        And how can I edit the pattern then?

          @Subpath I'm not sure VS or any app is supposed to "pick" existing patterns by finding the right tile
          size and tile location automatically, so that it will repeat flawlessly. Is this what you mean?

            Maybe I expressed myself wrong.

            I meant some sort of "automated" frame to adjust seamless pattern like in https://www.wowpatterns.com/pattern-maker/app/

            In addition to setting the pattern correctly, you could also experiment and get interesting results.

              there seems to be a misunderstanding here ?
              or do you mean @Harry ?

              I just asked @VectorStyler in my post above to describe the steps
              from his posts about reference content in a little more detail

                @Subpath You're right, it was Harry. Sorry. 🙂

                @Harry I agree that something that lets the user adjust the tile size interactively would be welcome. 👍

                  Not only tile size, but its position on the pattern also 🙂

                    in case you may not know, you could create
                    some of that Patterns from "Wowpatterns"

                    with Clipping Objects in VS is a little more work
                    but do able i think. In the end you have to choose
                    the Section you like and create a pattern from it.

                    I record a Video here to show some steps
                    will also do a little Tutorial which take some time

                    here the video
