== From start to
We will create a pattern for a basic panty
=== SeamlyME ===
First we will open SeamlyME and enter the measurements we need. In this tutorial we will use <code>'''cm'''</code> as unit and an <code>'''individual'''</code> measurement file.
<div>

</div>
<div>[[File:Seamly2D Tutorial 02.png|500x500px|center]]</div>◆<div>
For this pattern we need several measurements:
* Waist circumference ⇒ 72 cm
* Hip circumference ⇒ 97 cm
* Waist to hip (side) ⇒ 21 cm
* Crotch length (front) ⇒ 26.5 cm
[[File:Seamly2D Tutorial 03.png|center|500x500px]][[File:Seamly2D Tutorial 04.png|center|500x500px]]◆
Insert your own measurements. For this tutorial we will use the measurements as mentioned above. Delete the formula in the crotch length (N03) and insert your measurement.
After that you can save the mesurement file.
=== Seamly2D ===
Now you can open Seamly2D and create a new draft block by clicking on the '''<code>New</code>''' button. Give the draft block a good name.[[File:Seamly2D Tutorial 06.png|center|500x500px]][[File:Seamly2D Tutorial 07.png|center|500x500px]]
◆
The next step will be to add the SeamlyME measurement file you just created. Now you can use those measurements.[[File:Seamly2D Tutorial 08.png|center|300x300px]]◆
You can modify the name of your starting point to your liking. You may leave the default values or you can define the coordinates to even numbers, if you wish.[[File:Seamly2D Tutorial 09.png|center|500x500px]][[File:Seamly2D Tutorial 10.png|center|500x500px]]◆
We can now start drawing our first nodes. Select the <code>'''Point - Length and Angle'''</code> - Tool and click on point <code>'''A'''</code> to begin drawing. Move the cursor away a distance and hit enter.
Once you hit enter, a window will open where you can modify the properties.
* Make sure that the angle is set to 270°
* Select the formula tool for the length. We will choose our measurement '''<code>crotch_length_f</code>'''. If you misspell something or entered a wrong formula, the word '''<code>error</code>''' will show up. Amend the formula accordingly

Zoom to fit all, so you can see the new node. You can also use the scrollwheel of your mouse[[File:Seamly2D Tutorial 14.png|center|350x350px]]◆
We will continue creating 3 new nodes with the <code>'''Point - Length and Angle'''</code> - Tool
* Point: '''A ⇒ A2''', Length: '''<code>waist_to_hip_side</code>''', Angle '''270°'''
* Point: '''A1 ⇒ A3''', Length: '''<code>hip_circ/10 -1</code>''', Angle '''270°'''
* Point: '''A ⇒ A4''', Length: '''<code>hip_circ/4 -2</code>''', Angle '''0°'''
[[File:Seamly2D Tutorial 15.png|center|500x500px]]◆
We will finish our pattern grid with a new tool: <code>'''Point - Intersect XY'''</code>. Click on point '''A4''' and then on point '''A2'''. Repeat the same tool from point '''A4''' to point '''A3'''. You now created points '''A5''' & '''A6'''.[[File:Seamly2D Tutorial 16.png|center|500x500px]]◆
</div>Next we create different variables we can use later on. Variables are very useful. You can use them as an easily accessible place for things like ease where one can change the values in one place for the whole pattern.
* <code>'''vertical_mark'''</code>: 8 cm
* '''<code>side_length_mark</code>''': 5 cm
* '''<code>side_waist_drop_mark</code>''': 6 cm
[[File:Seamly2D Tutorial 17.png|center|500x500px]][[File:Seamly2D Tutorial 18.png|center|500x500px]]◆
Go ahead a create two new nodes with the <code>'''Point - Length and Angle'''</code> - Tool
* Point: '''A ⇒ A7''', Length: '''<code>waist_circ/4</code>''', Angle '''0°'''
* Point: '''A ⇒ A8''', Length: '''<code>#vertical_mark</code>''', Angle '''270°'''
[[File:Seamly2D Tutorial 19.png|center|353x353px]][[File:Seamly2D Tutorial 20.png|center|410x410px]][[File:Seamly2D Tutorial 21.png|center|500x500px]]◆
We will create new nodes with a new tool. The <code>'''Point - On Line'''</code> Tool. Select the tool and click first on point '''A7''' and then point '''A5'''. Choose the variable '''<code>side_waist_drop_mark</code>''' as length. Repeat by clicking point '''A9''' and '''A5'''. The length for the new point is '''<code>side_length_mark</code>'''
* Point: '''A7, A5 ⇒ A9''', Length: '''<code>#side_waist_drop_mark</code>'''
* Point: '''A9, A5 ⇒ A10''', Length: '''<code>#side_length_mark</code>'''
[[File:Seamly2D Tutorial 22.png|center|500x500px]]◆
We will add some more variables.
*<code>'''offset_front_to_back'''</code>: 1.5 cm
* '''<code>gusset_width</code>''': 3.5 cm
* '''<code>gusset_width_offset</code>''': 0.3 cm
* '''<code>gusset_fold_height</code>''': 2.1 cm
* '''<code>gusset_height</code>''': 8 cm
* '''<code>gusset_radius</code>''': 1 cm
* '''<code>slope_offset</code>''': 1 cm
* '''<code>curve_height</code>''': 7 cm
◆
Use the new tool <code>'''Point - On Perpendicular'''</code> . Click first on point '''A9''' and then point '''A10'''. Choose the variable '''<code>offset_front_to_back</code>''' as length. Repeat by clicking point '''A9''' and '''A10'''. The length for the new point is '''<code>offset_front_to_back</code>'''. This time change the rotation angle to '''180°'''. For the next point click first on point '''A10''' and then point '''A9'''. Choose the variable <code>offset_front_to_back</code> as length and '''180°''' for the rotation angle.
*Point: '''A9, A10 ⇒ A11''', Length: '''<code>#offset_front_to_back</code>''', Rotation: '''0°'''
* Point: '''A9, A10 ⇒ A12''', Length: '''<code>#offset_front_to_back</code>''', Rotation: '''180°'''
* Point: '''A10, A9 ⇒ A13''', Length: '''<code>#offset_front_to_back</code>''', Rotation: '''180°'''
[[File:Seamly2D Tutorial 23.png|center|500x500px]]

[[File:Seamly2D Tutorial 24.png|center|500x500px]]We now have finished marking all necessary points.
◆
Add some groups, so we can organize all nodes and show/hide them as needed. After that we will add all the points we created to the group <code>'''Grid'''</code>.
* Back
* Curves
* Front
* Grid
* Gusset
* Mirror_Rotation
[[File:Seamly2D Tutorial 25.png|center|300x300px]][[File:Seamly2D Tutorial 26.png|center|300x300px]][[File:Seamly2D Tutorial 27.png|center|500x500px]]◆
We will need some more reference nodes for the curves. Therefore will will change the name of the basepoint.[[File:Seamly2D Tutorial 28.png|center|300x300px]]◆
We will create again some new nodes:
* Point - Length and Angle
**Point: '''A24 ⇒ B1''', Length: '''6cm''', Angle '''0°'''
**Point: '''A25 ⇒ B2''', Length: '''6cm''', Angle '''0°'''
*Point - On Perpendicular

**Point: '''A27, A28 ⇒ B14''', Length: '''10cm''', Rotation: '''180°'''
**Point: '''A13, A11 ⇒ B15''', Length: '''5cm''', Rotation: '''0°'''
You can hide all the points we added to the '''<code>Grid</code>''' group. So you will see only the new points. Add those to the group '''<code>Curves</code>'''. BTW: you can add/remove manually nodes to groups by rightclicking and selecting the appropriate function.[[File:Seamly2D Tutorial 29.png|center|500x500px]]◆
Add some other base points to the '''<code>Curves</code>''' group and modify the linetypes as you see fit to better distinguish the different nodes.[[File:Seamly2D Tutorial 30.png|center|300x300px]][[File:Seamly2D Tutorial 31.png|center|410x410px]]◆
Add some other base points to the '''<code>Curves</code>''' group and modify the linetypes as you see fit to better distinguish the different nodes
◆
We will use different tools to create curves. First we will use the tool '''<code>Curve - Fixed</code>'''. Click on the points '''A24''', '''B1''', '''B3''' & '''A11'''. Repeat the tool by clicking '''A25''', '''B2''', '''B4''' & '''A12'''. For curves with a more complex shape we can combine more nodes with the '''<code>Spline - Fixed</code>''' tool. Try it by clicking on points '''A26''', '''B5''', '''B6''', '''A28''', '''B7''', '''B9''', '''A31''', '''B10''', '''A19''' & '''A19''' (Yes click twice on A19 to finish the function or hit enter). Repeat with the same tool by clicking on points '''A13''', '''B15''', '''B14''', '''A27''', '''B13''', '''B12''' & '''A22'''.
[[File:Seamly2D Tutorial 32.png|center|500x500px]]◆
We will do the last curves with the '''<code>Arc - Radius and Angles</code>''' Tool.
* Center point: '''A20''', Radius: '''<code>#gusset_radius</code>''', First angle: '''270°''', Second angle: '''0°'''
* Center point: '''A23''', Radius: '''<code>#gusset_radius</code>''', First angle: '''0°''', Second angle: '''90°'''
[[File:Seamly2D Tutorial 33.png|center|451x451px]]◆
We have created all necessary nodes. It will be usefull to add all nodes and curves in different groups. Remember that you can assign a node to several groups
We now need to tweak the curves a little bit and check and align the transitions. For that we will use '''<code>Mirror Object by Line</code>''' Tool and mirror all node from the front part along point '''A9''' & '''A10'''. With the mirror tool you can easily create new nodes, so you can verify the transition between different curves. If need to, you can adjust the curve nodes as needed to get a smooth transition between the curves.[[File:Seamly2D Tutorial 34.png|center|500x500px]][[File:Seamly2D Tutorial 35.png|center|500x500px]]◆
Congratulations! We have compeleted the first part in <code>'''Draw - Mode'''</code>. The next step will be to create a new pattern piece.[[File:Seamly2D Tutorial 36.png|center|337x337px]]We will start with the nodes from front part. Remember to click all elements in clockwise order. It is also important to bare in mind, that each curve and arc has a flow direction.
After clicking all the points, hit enter to finish the process. You can then specify the properties of the pattern piece. You can allways modify those properties by rightclicking on the pattern piece, if you need to.[[File:Seamly2D Tutorial 37.png|center|500x500px]][[File:Seamly2D Tutorial 38.png|center|613x613px]]
◆
If you wish to, you can modify the generel pattern preferences and create a label template for your design. This information can be displayed in the pattern pieces.[[File:Seamly2D Tutorial 39.png|center|562x562px]]Edit the properties of your pattern pieces as needed.[[File:Seamly2D Tutorial 40.png|center|368x368px]][[File:Seamly2D Tutorial 41.png|center|368x368px]][[File:Seamly2D Tutorial 42.png|center|500x500px]]◆
The last step will be to layout your pattern pieces in Layout - Mode. Choose your pattern format and get the pattern pieces ready for printing. You can now print your pattern. Happy sewing.[[File:Seamly2D Tutorial 43.png|center|500x500px]][[File:Seamly2D Tutorial 44.png|center|500x500px]][[File:Seamly2D Tutorial 45.png|center|500x500px]]
