Draw and edit
Lines, polylines, circles, arcs, ellipses, Bézier curves, splines and stroke text; select, move, rotate, mirror and scale.
Your pattern. One connected workflow.

WINDOWS APPLICATION · DEVELOPMENT STATUS
What the current application can do
These capabilities are implemented in the desktop candidate. The public customer release is still pending; plan scope and seat counts will be defined before sales open.
Continue projects
Manage pattern pieces, quantities and materials; undo and redo changes; save projects as .textil.json and reopen them.
Create markers
Place copies manually or arrange them with Auto Nest (Shelf); edit position and rotation, save multiple nests and export cutting geometry as SVG or DXF.
Outside the confirmed scope
Parametric templates, order automation, camera capture and direct cutter/plotter control are not confirmed for this version. Auto Nest (Shelf) uses independent shelf packing; the original PatternSmith nesting engines are not included. Browser demos illustrate additional ideas.
Workflows and further development ideas
01 ↗
2D pattern design
Construct textile patterns in 2D. Work with outlines, curves, seam allowances and notches in a clear digital workflow.
Explore →02 ↗Digitising
Bring existing patterns into an editable digital workflow. Understand reference measurements, contours and quality checks.
Explore →03 ↗Parametric templates
Create repeatable pattern variants with parametric templates. Keep dimensions, dependencies and checks together for textile products.
Explore →04 ↗AI Nesting
Plan textile markers with nesting. Account for material width, quantities, grain direction and rotation when arranging pattern pieces.
Explore →05 ↗Import & export
Prepare patterns for data exchange and cutting. Check units, contours, markers and the behaviour of your target software.
Explore →06 ↗Order workflows
Organise textile templates, variants and orders. Connect clear naming, piece lists and approved pattern revisions to your cutting workflow.
