This is the best place to ask questions, meet other freesewers, or just hang out and share a laugh.

@AlfaLyr

Great, just asking because I'm doing the finishing of one piece of the hat and I was't sure where to include that

Joost De Cock

@joostdecock

The title macro only takes a nr and title parameter: https://freesewing.dev/plugins/title

So that's all you need to add to the pattern

AlfaLyr

@AlfaLyr

good

yeah I already added the title and the logo

Joost De Cock

@joostdecock

:thumbsup:

AlfaLyr

@AlfaLyr

nr is an arbitrary piece number you assign to your pieces?

Joost De Cock

@joostdecock

Yes it is

AlfaLyr

@AlfaLyr

cool

Joost De Cock

@joostdecock

We should use that number to reference in the cuttings docs because if we say 'pocket lining' the translator may translate that one way in the docs, and another translator may translate that another way in the pattern itself. So now the docs don't match the part names on the pattern.

Hence why number is safer :)

AlfaLyr

@AlfaLyr

makes sense

Joost De Cock

@joostdecock

That too is something that needs to be update in the docs
Gosh we have so much work :hear_no_evil:

AlfaLyr

@AlfaLyr

haha

for the cut on fold, is there any way to change the offset? because by default is 5cm, which is far too big for the hat pieces

Joost De Cock

@joostdecock

There is: https://freesewing.dev/plugins/cutonfold#usage

AlfaLyr

@AlfaLyr

yeah I got to that page like 1 second after I asked xD

Joost De Cock

@joostdecock

We need to fix the search

Gosh we have so much work :hear_no_evil:

Exactly

AlfaLyr

@AlfaLyr

haha

Other thing I noticed, is there any reason why the options of Benjamin don't have the drawings anymore? I remember they had drawings before because I did one of them

Joost De Cock

@joostdecock

I have no idea

Joost De Cock

@joostdecock

I created issues for these things here: https://github.com/freesewing/markdown/issues

@woutervdub

I just looked back in my originals, and there is no reference to the svg file in the option's md file. They do have exactly the same name. So could it have been something that was done automagically by the site?

This is in the generated html file for one of the options:

{% include figure.html url="/img/patterns/benjamin/options/endStyle.png" description="Examples of different end styles" %}

Joost De Cock

@joostdecock

There's an issue open at the link I posted above. It's perhaps better to comment there because by the time someone tackles this issue this part of the chat might be ancient history

Wouter van Wageningen

@woutervdub

Done. I was trying to jog your memory, since mine is certainly failing on this part. I totally don't recollect how that worked.

Joost De Cock

@joostdecock

I'm a bit overwhelmed at the moment with work and other things, which is why I'm dumping everything into issues so I can re-visit them later 😔

Wouter van Wageningen

@woutervdub

No worries.

Issues are the best!

It’s clears the mind

AlfaLyr

@AlfaLyr

Hi! I finished the first version of the hat (https://github.com/AlfaLyr/freesewing/tree/develop/packages/holmes)
So I got the idea from this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H24VBFMZJF4&t=1116s , and the lady struggles getting the right shape for the gores, so I thought I could calculate them matematically. Joost suggested making a plugin that would give you the gores to make a sphere, and the plugin is inside /src
In /drawings you can see the svg files to exemplify the options, so you know what they do

If anyone wants to try it, feedback would be welcome :)

And Joost, don't stress yourself with this, I won't be online for the next couple of weeks anyway :P

Kieran Klaassen

@kieranklaassen

Cool!! 👏🏻👏🏻

Joost De Cock

@joostdecock

Thanks @AlfaLyr that's really awesome 👌

AlfaLyr

@AlfaLyr

Unfortunately I'm moving out the country and I sold my sewing machine, so I won't try the pattern in actual fabric till I buy a new one xD

Wouter van Wageningen

@woutervdub

Sold your sewing machine?!?!

Sacrilege!

AlfaLyr

@AlfaLyr

only with the excuse to buy a better one

I knit in the meanwhile, to cope with the withdrawal

Wouter van Wageningen

@woutervdub

You are forgiven.

Joost De Cock

@joostdecock

Sounds like a big adventure. Where are you heading @AlfaLyr ?

AlfaLyr

@AlfaLyr

Switzerland

Joost De Cock

@joostdecock

Cool! Mountains are awesome. I seem to remember @stoffsuchti is somewhere around there too.

AlfaLyr

@AlfaLyr

yeah, mountains are amazing :)
