Hello, is there a way to draft a pattern from scratch without needing to insert a shape or sort of adding lines and point without calculations to close the floating lines to form a shape? Like using the pen tool, but the line is already an edge line without needing to insert a shape so that a corner point can be added and the line length can be calculated? Like making your own guidelines? Is there a way to break up a line made with the pen tool, I wanted to change the points to corner points but being a floating line or internal I was not allowed to do that or add corner points? Is there also anyway to have internal lines show the measurements as editable numbers like with edges lines? I am using PC. Thanks in advance.

Hi Adora,
You are right about the limitations that come with floating or internal lines. I am sharing a very useful video tutorial on creating guidelines to assist you with pattern drafting in the program. (Tutorial starts at min 16:50)

Please let me know if you have any questions about the process laid out in the video.
Best,
