Sloper Menu Overview


The Sloper menu is comprised of seven commands pertaining to Slopers: New Simple Fit.., New Refined Fit.., Edit.., Save, Discard Unsaved/Unedited Sloper and Delete. A Sloper is the green drawing on the screen which represents one’s body. You may use standard size slopers, or create a custom sloper of your own. If you choose to create a custom sloper, you may work with either the Simple-Fit sloper (which requires 12 body measurements) or you may choose to create a Refined-Fit sloper that requires additional body measurements. Refer to Chapter 4 to determine how to measure your body to create your own custom sloper. Chapter 5 provides you with a full explanation of slopers, the Sloper dialog and how your measurements affect the patterns you create.
