PROJECT SEWING PATTERNS
• Open PDF and SVG sewing pattern files
• Project patterns directly onto your work surface
• Choose which layers to project — select just your size or all sizes
• Calibrate using a cutting mat for precise alignment or measuring tape to project onto fabric, floors, and larger spaces
• Move projected patterns by exact measurements for fine-tuned placement
• Rotate the pattern and flip pattern pieces along fold lines
• Adjust line color and weight for better visibility
• Zoom freely with pinch-to-zoom, fit-to-screen, and preset zoom levels
• Navigate large patterns with the integrated minimap
• Track cut pieces with checkmarks as you work
• Calibration and pattern settings are saved so you can resume where you left off

—
PRINT SEWING PATTERNS
• Choose the pattern layers you need before printing
• Hide or show pages
• Export print files for home printing or copy shop use
• Calibrate your printer so patterns print at the correct size
• Once calibration is saved, you don’t need to repeat it unless you change printers or settings

What’s new

This update includes a few improvements and fixes for projecting patterns:

- The minimap now works correctly at all zoom levels, not just 100%.
- When using tape measurement calibration, there’s now an extra step to confirm your calibration looks correct before saving.
- You can now rotate patterns by any amount.
- A few behind-the-scenes improvements and warning fixes to keep things running smoothly.
