4Dbox PLANS functions

Design

Creation of design also functions to create color variation.

Simultaneously works among editing, printing, comparing other color schemes, by using color scheme indication screendisplay.

Various design creation and simulation

Color Reducer

Hand-drawn patterns and full-color design data broken down into any number of shades.

Color Reducer

Hand-drawn patterns and full-color design data broken down into any number of shades.

Repeat drawing・Repeated Expander

While painting in normal mode, drawing with repeat display or layout with layer are doable.

Color scheme

Simultaneously works among editing, printing, comparing other color schemes, by using color scheme indication screendisplay.

Retouch

Original Tool enables accurate retouch, upon comparison between color-reduced and original images.

Plaid

Plaid patterns can be created with easy input of Stripe designs just like drawing. Conversion to one-notch-up textile data is also available.

Polka

In addition to basic patterns, original patterns are also available. Images combined with repeat feeding can be developed with suitable size to document.

Stripe

In case of Stripe pattern creation on one-repeat, patterns can be automatically
repeated for vertical, horizontal, bias directions to create Stripe patterns entirely and promptly.

Plaid Generator

A function enables automatic designing of Plaid patterns based on original swatches.
Infinitely broad scale of pattern variation helps to enhance potentiality of design work.

Embroidery

Satin and Fill expressions can be created with feeling of painting based on sketch, by using Embroidery Tool. Free-style line drawings are available in case of Kashmir Embroidery Running Tool.

▶︎ Design is included in all packages.

Composition and system　

Printing

Entire print function workable for creation of images to maps.

Mapping

Meshes make it easier to interpret integration more realistically and create images with depth and drawing patterns. Mesh data employed at integration is repeatable, its written layer functions for color scheme editing.

Gallery　

Path

A function to help drawing of flat sketches and design drawings with smoother line.
Parts registration helps to exchange each item in a simple manner. Also, other path data created by other applications can be used, as SVG file reading is available. (*Partly limited.)

Procedure to create stripe segments based on textiles and images loaded by scanner.

Color Scheme Creation

You can choose desired color scheme by viewing auto-demonstration of specified color palette.

Creation of yarns

Approximately 1,000 different types of yarns are ready to use. Also, scanned yarns can be put into database. Auto-creation of <Top dyed/Twisted/Loop/Ikat> yarns are doable.

Editing of wave

Editing work simultaneously functions with checking yarn color on construction editing screen display. Integrated editing combined with existing constructions.

Double stripe / Dobby stripe

Design of double and tubular weaves are doable. To design dobby and jacquard are also doable.

Composition and system　

Knit

Display of knit swatch with specified stitch marks and images.

Knitting

Knitted interpretation created by simple operation composed of stitch image and stitch marks.

Gallery　

Convert image

For detailed adjustment, use existing image file, convert it into stitch image, draw with desired drawing tools.

Stitch mark entry

Disposal entry of stitch marks and print with stitch mark indication.

Knitting

Visualized knitted status based on stitch image and stitch marks data, starting from basic specification of gauges and conversion to yarn form, such as loop. Simultaneous operation
both color conversion and visualization of knitted status.Simple color scheme management by single data.
