Each time Valentina creates a new pattern piece a base point is created. Because “McCunn-basic-sleeve” is the first pattern piece in the pattern file created in this example, the base point is labeled “A”.

'''McCunn method - step 1)''' The first line, which is the Sleeve Centerline (shown in '''Figure 1'''), may be seen as a line from the shoulder point to the wrist. Draft this line using the “point at distance and angle” tool. That tool is found on the Valentina Point sub menu. Click on point A and drag the rubber band line in a downward direction. The angle and distance need not initially be precise because a window (as shown in '''Figure 4''') will pop up and provide the opportunity to make adjustments to the values.

Use the Angle data entry box on this window to ensure that the angle is 270 exactly. This represents a vertical line. Select a color other than black to indicate that this is a reference line and not part of the final pattern outline. (In this example, golden rod is chosen for the reference lines). Lines which correspond to the final outline of the pattern will be drawn in black.

The length of the line is represented as a numerical length (which is a result of the length the user dragged the rubber band line). Delete that numerical value and click on the function icon. The function icon may be recognized by the label f(x).
