Export from Design Project

You can export different files by different ways from you design project.

Save the design view as image file

  1. A design project is open.
  2. The pattern has a design which you want to save as image file.
    107
    Open the context menu of the design view with the RMB.
    108
    Click the Exportar como archivo de imagen... menu item.
    109
    Select the file format of the image, enter a name, select the path and save it.
  1. The complete design view is saved.

Save fabric view as image file

  1. A design project is open.
    110
    Open the context menu of the fabric view with the RMB.
    111
    Click the Exportar como archivo de imagen... menu item.
  1. The following dialog box appears with settings about saving:

Formato de imagen

  • PNG with or without transparency
    Export the fabric view for further processing to a 3D apparel software always as PNG with enabled transparency (Canal alfa PNG).
  • JPG with specification of the quality
    The fabric view as JPG is always exported with a black background.

So-called Maps are used for the 3D visualization and 3D simulation to assign two-dimensional images to the three-dimensional surfaces of the models.
The different types of Maps give a more detailed and realistic appearance to the computer generated 3D models.

  • Alpha Map
    • An alpha Map contains information about transparent areas of a texture.
      In a 3D software it is required to define the transparent space.
  • Normal Map
    • Also referred to as Bump Map.
    • The Normal Map specifies the angle, with which virtual light is reflected over a digital surface.
    • With it the appearance of the texture depth is simulated.
    • The Normal Map is a necessary part of digital textures in a 3D software.
  • Displacement Map
    • Also referred to as Height Map.
    • A Displacement Map can artificially generate an additional height of a digital texture.
    • This way, a more realistic appearance of three-dimensional surface structure results within a 3D model.

Origen de imagen

  • Muestra completa
    • Select, if a complete fabric is to exported.
  • Sector seleccionado
    • Exports only the desired, selected section of a pattern.
      This function is helpful in case cycles are to be used in a 3D apparel software.
  • Sección de imagen actual
    • Exports only the area that currently appears in the document window of the fabric view.
  • Conservar relación de aspecto
    • The size ratio of the pattern is maintained.

Create a new pattern project from the design.

You can create a new pattern project within CREATE PLUS only.
This selection is not available in the CREATE DESIGN .

  1. You are working with CREATE PLUS
  2. A design project is loaded and ready to export.
    112
    Click Nuevo proyecto de muestra in the Exportación group of the Inicio ribbon tab.
  1. The Nuevo proyecto de muestra a partir de muestra de diseño dialog box appears.
    2. 113
    Select machine in the Nuevo proyecto de muestra a partir de muestra de diseño dialog box.
    114
    Enter the pattern name.
    115
    Switch the comb for the start on or off.
    116
    Select the desired design from the Design Project.
  1. A new pattern project will be created.

Render a Fabric Piece

You can save your Design for 3D simulation.

  1. A design project is open.
    117
    Click Representar pieza de tisaje in the Exportación group of the Inicio ribbon tab.
  1. The Exportación dialog box appears with settings about rendering.

Selección de muestra

  • Select the desired patterns for export.
