Improved FBX export for creating animations in other applications
The new FBX, welded export format has been added for whoever is interested to bring their Optitex simulated garments into Unreal, DAZ, Maya or other 3rd party packages and further animate the garments there. This export welds pieces along the stitch lines preventing garments from falling apart during external animation.
Note: This export outputs just bare cloth, without trims and materials. They should be assigned in external animation App.
Enhanced color matching between PDS and Photoshop

PDS-2D Updates
New in Version O/24.0
New ASTM/AAMA export symmetry option
Normally, pieces withHalf Symmetry with notches or other elements, which are not reflected on the other half, should be exported so that the a-symentrical elements are kept.
In previous versions, you had to cancel the symmetry to keep non reflected elements correctly in the output.
This new option allows you to keep the symmetry while controlling the export of Half Symmetry Pieces.
This is done in the exportSetup:
The Check-box Keep Symmetry (AAMA, ASTM, and Leather AAMA) is used as follows:
-
To keep non reflected elements, un-check this option. this will perform Open Half during the export, keeping the non reflected elements as they were.
-
Keep this Check box selected, if you want to keep the Half Symmetry. This will result in a symmetric piece with the notches and other elements reflected on the other Half.

New functionality: Exclude buttons in sizes
Starting in version 24.0, buttons can be excluded in sizes.. This is done in the Button's properties.
You can select for each button, in which sizes it will be available and in which sizes not.
This way, you can adjust the number of buttons in the smaller / bigger sizes, as needed.
Note:
-
This is also reflected in 3D.
-
When you switch to a size where a button is excluded, the button is indicated with a smaller icon, so you can still see its location in 2D.
For more information see: Buttons appearance in Sizes
