To grade a garment, you use the grade points on the base size. The outline of the pattern pieces for the other sizes are plotted by reference to those base size grade points.
-
Grade points on the base size are colored white.
-
By default, all corner points (squares) on the base size are grade points.
-
You can configure other points (circles) on the base size to be grade points. For more information, refer to Configuring Points as Grade Points.
-
You can only select grade points on the base size.
Note
To select multiple grade points, press Shift and click, or marquee select the desired points.
