Part

A Part in FreeSewing holds all data, logic, and configuration of a Design. Parts truly are the building blocks of FreeSewing as they not only provide the configuration, but also a draft() method that does the actual work of drafting a parametric design.

Properties

A Part object comes with the following properties:

  • attributes : An Attributes instance holding the part’s attributes
  • hidden : When this is true the part will be hidden (excluding it from the output). See Part.hide(), Part.unhide(), and Part.setHidden() for various methods that allow setting this in a chainable way.
  • name : The name of the part
  • paths : Holds the paths used in the part
  • points : Holds the points used in the part
  • snippets : Holds the snippets used in the part
