==TapeSeamlyMe - Individual Measurements== <!--T:3-->
Most people will design patterns and sew for specific people - either customers or family and friends. And, as one can read all over the internet, standard sizes do not fit everyone and always need adjustments. Therefore, '''Seamly2D''' has very cleverly provided the individual measurements system.<br>
If you followed the tutorial on '''Multisizes''', then you will already have covered a number of things which I will only refer to in this tutorial. As we covered centimeters in '''Multisizes''', we will use inches in Individual sizes.
When you open TapeSeamlyMe, you are presented with a blank screen, click on '''New''' and choose the following options in the popup screen:<br>

* '''Read Only''' - This is a very clever inclusion that locks the measurement file so that no changes can be made to it.<br>
* '''List of Recent Measurement Files''' - Next is a list of recent files opened to help you quickly find and open the one you are busy with. This list accommodates 5 files.<br>
* '''Preferences''' - And here we come to the all important one. This is where we set up our personal preferences. These preferences will be the same every time you open TapeSeamlyMe.<br>
: Click on Preferences and the follow screen pops up:<br>

Line 74:
** '''My Templates''' – I also leave this at the default.<br>
: Once you have setup all your preferences, you may click on ‘Apply’ and ‘Ok’ to close it. These preferences will be the defaults for all your measurement files unless you specify differently.<br><br>
* '''Quit''' - Closes the TapeSeamlyMe program, you may also click on the X at the very top right.<br>

** '''waist_circ / _pi'''<br>
If the waist_circ = 31.5”, this formula will return 10.0268” which corelates to 31.5” * 7 / 22.<br><br>
