Pleat Fold
Purpose：
To assist users in quickly setting the folding angle for internal lines when creating pleats.
Operation Path：
Home ▶ Pleat Tool ▶ Pleat Fold
Operation Instructions：
First, use the Line Drawing Arrow tool to determine which lines to set the angle for. Then, in the pop-up window, set the type of edge folding and the angle for the edge folding. This function can only set the folding angle for internal lines, and users need to sew separately.
- Number of internal lines per pleat
Number | Knife Pleat | Accordion Pleat | Inner Box Pleat | Outer Box Pleat | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Number of internal lines per pleat | 2 | When 180-degree internal lines are not outlined, two internal lines form a loop | Default: Two internal lines form a loop | / | |
3 | When all internal lines are outlined, three internal lines form a loop | / | / | ||
4 | / | / | When neither of the two 180-degree internal lines are traced, four internal lines form one loop | ||
5 | / | / | When none of the 180-degree internal line is traced, five internal lines form one loop | ||
6 | / | / | When all internal lines are traced, six internal lines form one loop | ||

Application scenario: For imported DXF files, where the pleat positions already include base lines, outline different quantities of 180° lines in coordination with the number of internal lines in the folded pleat cycles.
