You can configure various properties for each seam in the application. However, you must use external software to edit seam texture. For more information, refer to Editing Seam Texture.

To edit a seam:

Label	Descriptions
1	Metalness Map representing the metallic aspect of the seam. Includes a texture (image file). The thumbnail is an image. A metalness map image is a grayscale image. Black: no effect (Intensity of 0) White: maximum effect (Intensity of 1) Click the thumbnail to display the image editor. In Intensity, drag the slider or type in a number from 0 (none) to 1 (maximum) to set the metallic amount. Note: If Metalness Intensity is set to 1, the specular map has no effect.
2	Specular tint Map that adds the diffuse color to reflective areas on the material. In Intensity, drag the slider or type in a number from 0 (none) to 1 (maximum) to set the amount of specular tint.
3	Sheen Map that adds the natural behavior effect of light coming from behind the material. It is used to create a velvet like appearance of materials. In Intensity, drag the slider or type in a number from 0 (none) to 1 (maximum) to set the amount of sheen.
4	Sheen tint Map that adds the effect of reflections set by the sheen coming from behind the material. In Intensity, drag the slider or type in a number from 0 (none) to 1 (maximum) to set the amount of sheen tint.
5	Subsurface Map representing the effect of light scattering inside an object, being an additional diffuse channel. Useful for translucent materials. Includes a texture (image file) and a color. Use of this channel is the only way to achieve a diffuse color that is different from the specular color. The left thumbnail is an image. Click the thumbnail to display the image editor. The right thumbnail displays the subsurface color. Click the thumbnail to display the color picker. The color and the texture combine using Multiply blend mode. For more information, refer to Color Blending Modes. In Intensity, drag the slider or type in a number from 0 (none) to 1 (maximum) to set the strength of the effect.
6	Clear coat Map representing another level of shininess, being an additional shininess/specular channel. Useful for 3D trims and especially shiny materials. In Intensity, drag the slider or type in a number from 0 (none) to 1 (maximum) to set the amount of shininess.
7	Clear coat roughness Map representing the level of roughness of the clear coat channel. This is a very precise, fine tune effect which is not as readily visible as other channels. In Intensity, drag the slider or type in a number from 0 (none) to 1 (maximum) to set the amount of roughness.

Converting Existing Vector Artwork in Garments

When you open a file with an existing Ai graphic, you are prompted with the option to convert to vector format.

To convert existing Ai/SVG seam material to vector:

If the Materials tab is not already open, on the Resources tabs, click Materials.
If not already open, click the Garment tab.
Go to the Seams section.
Hover over the seam you want to convert and click
. A menu is displayed.
Click Convert to Vector. The graphic is converted to vector format.

Note

You can also convert vector back to raster using the same procedure but clicking Convert to Raster on the menu.
