== Standard measurements ==
'''Standard measurements tables''' contain sizing information which
Usually multi-size standard tables provide a lot statistical data that are hard to describe and
By size we usually understand value of chest measurement. According to our internal system of names, it is measurement ''G04 - Bust circumference (bustcirc)''. See page [[Measurements]].
Height values grow in 6 cm and increments are limited to the values listed below.<br />
<code>Height (cm): 50, 56, 62, 68, 74, 80, 86, 92, 98, 104, 110, 116, 122, 128, 134, 140, 146, 152, 158, 164, 170, 176, 182, 188, 194, 200.</code>
Size values grow in 2 cm and increments are limited to the values listed below.<br />
<code>Size (cm): 22, 24, 26, 28, 30, 32, 34, 36, 38, 40, 42, 44, 46, 48, 50, 52, 54, 56, 58, 60, 62, 64, 66, 68, 70, 72.</code>
The format
Usually, the process creating a file with standard tables
Let's take a look
Here is an example of how
<source lang="cpp">
Line 51:
// Calculate new measurement value for waist girth:
new_waist_girth = 780 + 3 * 40 + 2 * 0 = 900 mm
</source>
Let's look at a simpler example:
[[File:Aldrichtable.png|frameless|center|582px]]
Here we see a table that has a correlation between measurements at different heights. The next thing, that we need to do to continue to work with it, is to designate the base size and base height. In this example, we will take size (chest measurement) 50 and height 80. All measurements in the column height 80 are now our base values. Then we calculate the values '''size_increase''' and '''height_increase''' for each measurement separately. In this example, the table only provides changes for heights. So, '''size_increase''' will be always equal to 0. The last thing to do is to find the '''height_increase''' values. Here are several examples for better understanding:
<source lang="bash">
chest = 50, 52, 54 = 2. 50 + 2 = 52. 52 + 2 = 54
waist = 47, 49, 51 = 2
shoulder = 6.2, 6.6, 7 = 0.4
body rise = 14.1, 14.9, 15.7 = 0.8
</source>
== Using measurements ==
To use the measurements, it should be linked to a pattern file. By default, each new pattern file isn't connected to any measurements. To understand current state take a look at window title. It will have the measurement file inside '[' ']' if one was connected to pattern, like this: '''pattern.val [measurements.vit]'''. Alternatively, you can use menu '''Pattern piece -> Pattern properties'''.
To create your own standard measurement table use Tape app.▼
To link new measurements to the pattern file, use menu '''Measurements -> Load Individual ...''' or '''Measurements -> Load Multisize''' (Standar)'''...'''
=== Individual measurements ===
Files containing individual measurements end with suffix '''.vit''' (Seamly2D Individual Measurement).
=== Standard measurements ===
Files containing standard measurements end with suffix '''.vst''' ([[UserManual:Measurement file format|
* For Unix(Linux):
# [path to Seamly2D binary]/tables/standard
# /usr/share/Seamly2D/tables/standard
* OS X:
# [path to Seamly2D bundle]/Resources/tables/standard
# [path to Seamly2D bundle]/tables/standard
# /home/[user name]/.Seamly2D/tables/standard
# /usr/share/Seamly2D/tables/standard
* Windows:
# [folder where Seamly2D.exe resides]/tables/standard
The paths mentioned above can be rewritten by changing the settings in '''Preferences'''. See page [[UserManual:Configuring Seamly2D]]
If a pattern is connected to standard measurements, to determine which standard figure is currently associated with your pattern, look at the values of size and height displayed at the bottom left of the main window. You may modify these values independently using the corresponding drop-down lists.
