===Nature of tools===
You can use a variaty of tools in Seamly2D to create your own garments. Using different tools will create new points and lines in your drawing.
Tools described in this section have been especially created so that, when you use them along with the measurements that you enter in Tape, it will automatically resize all the pattern pieces when you change the measurements. If you have created Standard sizes in Tape, then you may select a different size at the bottom left of your screen and the pattern will automatically resize. Height is the actual height of the person and Size is the actual bust size of the person.


You can use formulas in your tools to create adaptive drawings. For example you can use individual measurements from [[UserManual:SeamlyMeOverview|SeamlyMe]]. Changing values in your formulas will automatically resize your pattern. Using a multisize measurementfile you can choose your actualy height and size in the bottom right corner of the screen. Your pattern will resize accordingly.[[File:Seamly2d DrawModeTools02.png|center|350x350px]][[File:Advice.svg|left|50x50px]]'''Import note:'''

As you can see from the above images, I have changed the size and B11 has moved slightly to the right (A4 to B11 is the only line in this example that I am actually using a formula from the measurements) and you can see that the move caused the front shoulder to move out of the image.
