'center front' - A line running vertically, representing the nominal center line at the front of a garment. May also be indicative of a 'seam' line in the same location.▼

▲
'circle skirt' - A skirt formed by considering the waist as a cricle, the radius of that circle + the skirt length being used to draft ▼

| grading, rule based || The original base pattern is created by using pattern formulas plus base body measurements. Each successive size pattern is drawn around the previous size pattern by extending out from specific points around the pattern outline. Lines and curves are drawn between the new points to complete the new size pattern.▼
▲'grading' - An adjustment process whereby a pattern or draft is adjusted for different sizes; Verbatim quote from - https://forum.seamly.net/t/what-is-the-term-for-the-method-that-can-be-used-instead-of-grading/3240/11:
|-
| grading, chart based || This is the Seamly2D method. A Multisize chart is created by successively adding small amounts (as defined by a set of rules) to body measurements, starting with base size body measurements. Each size pattern is created by applying each measurement set directly to the pattern formulas – a copy of a smaller sized pattern is not required.

▲'gore' - A triangular, rhomboid or trapezoidal piece of fabric, typically used in the construction of shaped portion which curves, such as the sections of a skirt. ( See also 'section', 'pattern piece' )
|-
▲'scye' - A curve typically representing an armhole in a design. ( see also https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/scye), Typically formed from number or other arcing or curved edges on pattern peices, which combine to form the curve when the garment design is constructed. (See also measurement:L19-22,L29, L28)
▲'seat' - A measurement representing the maximum width needed to accommodate the widest point below the waist, (see also Measurement: G08,G09)
▲to 'square' from a line is to draw perpendicular to it, squaring from a vertical line means you draw horizontally to or from it a given point.
(Seamly 2D has a tool for creating a point, perpendicular to a given line.)
