Point(x,y). Referring to size measurements.

Placing points - the command point and several examples of pattern drafts.

Point(x,y). Referring to size measurements.
Apply(point,distance,angle). Length of virtual line [point1:point2].l

Let's change some of the point commands from the last tutorial to apply commands. We shall also use virtual lines between two points for some of the calculations.

Apply(point,distance,angle). Length of virtual line [point1:point2].l
Meet(point,angle,point,angle). Using variables.

Using command "meet" for placing points.

Organising your code. Using variables and comments.

Before we dive into the actual drafting, let's make some calculations and organize them so that we can easily adapt our pattern to different needs.

Redefining objects

In this lesson we shall see what happens if we define an object or a variable again.

Rotate ((objects), point, angle). Angle (point, point, point)

Rotate is one of the most commonly used commands in pattern drafting. In this lesson we manipulate darts with its help.
