Br eak M ultiSegment—

MultiSegments.
On—Turns the selected seam on or off, making it
active or inactive.
Creas e a ngle—Creates a crease at the selected seam.

crease between the two panels or a long an
internal
seam line (page 1–590)
Left: High crease angle
Right: Low crease angle
Cr e as e St re n g t h —Increase or decrease the strength
of the selected seam. This value affects how much
the sea m will resist bending in relation to the rest
oftheclothobject.Avalueof2.0meansthatthe
cloth will have twice the resistance to bending
that it would otherwise have (as defined by the
object/panel/ver tex group prop erties).
Sewing Stiffness—The amount of force with which
the panels are pulled together at simulation time.
A larger value pulls the panels together harder and
faster.
Cut —Applies only to an internal seam line (page
1–590)
. Makes a c ut in the fabric at this seam line.
Seam Tolerance—Theamountofdifferencein
length b etween two edges that is permitted in
the formation of a seam. The two segments
thatcompriseaseamshouldbeaboutthesame
length. If they have different lengths, the difference
must b e within this tolerance range. If you seam
together two segments that are significantly
different in length, the cloth will tend to bunch up
(which could be a desired effect). In order to allow
the creation of such a seam, the Seam Tolerance
wi ll need to b e increased. The default value is 0.06,
which means th at the two segment lengths must be
within 6 percent of each other’s lengths.
Draw S eams—Showstheseamsintheviewport;
hides them when off.
Show Mesh—Shows the mesh in the viewport, or
hides it to work on your pattern. When this option
is off, the mesh is represented with a bounding box.
