Defining a specific location within a Seamly2D pattern is a fundamental operation. This process involves establishing a precise coordinate on the digital canvas, which then serves as an anchor for lines, curves, and other pattern elements. For example, it allows users to define the apex of a dart, the corner of a collar, or the intersection point of seam allowances. These points are integral to accurate pattern drafting and manipulation.
The ability to accurately position these anchors offers multiple benefits in pattern making. It ensures precise control over the shape and dimensions of pattern pieces, resulting in improved garment fit and construction. Historically, manual pattern drafting relied on painstaking measurements and markings. Digital systems, like Seamly2D, streamline this process by offering precise tools for establishing and manipulating these critical reference locations. This enhances efficiency and accuracy in design.
