User manual - EuroCAD Pattern Designer
ATTENTION: If a piece of the model is graded in
two different groups, it has to appear twice in that
model. For example, if a blouse sleeve is graded in
two different groups, from 40 to 46 and from 48 to
54, then two distinct pieces will be displayed:
« sleeve 40-46 » and « sleeve 48-54 ». Thus, when
the model will be ready for cutting, the specific
program will find in the saved file both sleeve sizes
(for size 42 and 54).
If the designer chooses for the « Sleeve » piece the
grading group 40-46, but forgets to create another
sleeve for sizes 48-54, the cutting program cannot
find the 54 size sleeve and the piece set will be
incomplete.
1.10.15 Add a new size into an existing size set
In GRADING mode, you can add a new size at the size set that is already graded. The new size can be added
anywhere you need in the size set. The new size place in the size set will be established according to the indexes
fields. The size will be placed in the size set next to the size that has the biggest index from the sizes with the index
smallest than the new size index. It will be graded proportionally with the neighboring sizes from the size set. The
grading step will be also calculated proportionally with the grading step of the neighboring sizes.
To add a new size in the graded size set, enter the « GRADING » mode, click on « Edit size set » button.
If you want to add a new size into a simple size set, containing a single grading type, you will have to use one of the
following functions: “Add a new size” or “Add a new grade size”. After activating one of these two buttons, a new
window called “New combined size” becomes displayed on the screen. Here you can establish the new size name by
typing in the “Combined name” field. The program adds automatically an index for the new size, and this index will
always place the size at the end of the size set. If you want to place it, in another position in the size set, you can do
this by changing the size index. If you want the new size to be added at the size set beginning the index must be
smaller than “1” and if you want to add it between two sizes you will have to input an index having the value between
the two indexes values of the sizes between which you want to add the new one.
If you want to add the new size in a combined size set, you have the possibility to add new sizes for all sizes types.
For this you will have to make a click on one of the “Add a new Grade size in the size set”, “Add a new Drop size in
the size set”, “Add a new Spec size in the size set” or “Add a new Extra size in the size set” functions. After activating
one of these functions, a new window will become displayed on the screen. Here, you will be able to type the new
sizes names, in the “Grade name”, “Drop name”, “Spec name” or “Extra name” fields depending on the size that you
want to add and to establish the size position in the size set. In addition, you have the possibility to add directly the
new combined size. After adding a new size, the new combined sizes will be added automatically in the size set list.
Click on the “Accept” button to save the new size set.
If you want to add a new size to a size set
that is already graded, enter the
« GRADING » mode and click on « Edit
size set » button
