Changing a Dart's Width or Length

Once you have added a dart to a garment, you can:

  • Change the width by moving the dart’s points

  • Change the length by moving the dart’s apex

Note

You can only extend the dart point as far as the corner point of the adjacent edge.

To change the dart’s width or length:

  1. On the Main toolbar, click Select.

  2. On the Horizontal contextual menu, ensure Edit Points is selected.
