Shrink and wind

  • Marvelous Designer Team COMMUNITY MANAGER Comment actions Permalink

    It sounds like you may not be accommodating the shrinkage for pleating (1:3 ratio) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MczNdvzegRE  Check out our pleating tutorial and let us know if that solves it. There are no wind effects on pleating so can you either show us in a screenshot of what's happening or share a screen recording of what is going on so that we can better help you problem solve your pleating issue? 

    (could be a lot of things that can cause weird issues that often are able to be hidden after you activate them, so please let us know if that video helps explain pleating a bit better and fixes your issue)

    Hello,

    It looks like it is part of the problem but elastic properties seems to make it worst. Is there a parameter to consider when using elastic properties with plates?

    Are you able to show us images of what is happening so that we can better understand the issue and assist you?

    Elastic makes it shrink twice stronger. But since I've kinda messed with parameters, I will start again from scratch and see if it happens again.

    ok good luck! Let us know if you are encountering further issues with it, please share images with us so we can help. There are multiple possible solutions to the issue that you are possibly experiencing that are specifically user error and without more context to the exact issue you are experiencing (an image of your screen for example), an explanation of software parameters could be more unhelpful than helpful to your situation. Please share with us visual examples if you are encountering any issues with pleats and elastic going forward. If you are unable to share your images on our public forum, you are more than welcome to send us the file or images via the Contact page here on the website so that we can better assist you.
