To edit sizes:

Insert Sizes

Use this operation to add sizes that are "smaller" than selected size. The newly inserted sizes will appear above the selected size. Note that only the Grading Values will determine which size is actually smaller.

Append Sizes

Use this operation to add sizes that are "bigger" than selected size. The newly appended sizes will appear below the selected size. Same as Insert Sizes, only grading values will determine which size is geometrically bigger.

Change by Ratio

Use this dialog to add specific sizes or modify the base size by ratio (percentage) of the grading value.

Delete Current Size

Click to delete the selected size. The base size cannot be deleted.

Delete All Sizes

Click to delete all sizes except the base size.

Change Size Order

Use the arrows to change selected size location in the table. It will not change the geometry of the sizes, only the name and line display (color, type and thickness). This is used if during Graded Nest Tool operation, the nested pieces were defined in the wrong order.

<=> Regrade By Brake Size

By Clicking on Regrade by Break Size button, all the grading values of the sizes that lie between these break sizes are re-graded equally.

Size Variations

• The goal of using Size Variations is to ultimately extract a size with premium fit to different measures from one basic block.

• For example, let's say that for a pair of jeans we'll define 4 Size Variations for Waist, Hips, Rise and Outseam. For each Size Variation we'll define 4 sizes for Small, Medium, Large and Extra Large (or High, Low, Long, Short etc.). Out of these 4 variations we can obtain 256 different sizes (4x4x4x4=256).

• Using the Size Variations system we can easily extract a pair of jeans to fit a body shape of Small waist, Extra Large hips, High rise and Long outseam.
