Faciliating designing of garment by duplicating pattern piece in three-dimensional space
The following disclosure relates to a pattern creation simulation method. The pattern creation simulation method may provide a user interface including a first area that controls a plurality of functions for creating or editing a design of a design product in a three-dimensional (3D) virtual space and a second area in which a plurality of interfaces are switched in response to the plurality of functions.
1. A method of designing garment, comprising:
displaying a garment including a plurality of pattern pieces in three-dimensional (3D) virtual space;
receiving selection of a pattern piece of the plurality pattern pieces in the three-dimensional virtual space;
duplicating the selected pattern piece responsive to receiving the selection of the pattern piece;
automatically setting sewing connections between the duplicated pattern piece and the selected pattern piece;
receiving an input updating a subset of the sewing connections to generate an updated garment including the duplicated pattern piece connected to the selected pattern piece; and
performing simulation of the updated garment in the three-dimensional virtual space.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
displaying sewing lines extending between an edge of the selected pattern piece to an edge of the duplicated pattern piece to represent the sewing connections.
3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
receiving selection of another pattern piece sharing a style line with the selected pattern piece, the style line representing a style, a silhouette or both the style and the silhouette of the garment, wherein sewing lines do not extend between the selected pattern piece and the other selected pattern piece.
4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising receiving a drawing input to draw a style line across at least one of the plurality of pattern pieces, the style line representing a style, a silhouette or both the style and the silhouette of the garment.
5. The method of claim 4 , further comprising automatically adding another style line that is symmetrical to the drawn style line, the other style line extending across at least another of the plurality of pattern pieces.
6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
displaying a style line representing a style, a silhouette or both the style and the silhouette of the garment in the three-dimensional virtual space; and
receiving an editing input to modify the displayed style line, wherein the updated garment is modified according to the modified style line.
7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising displaying user interface elements for selecting functions to be performed on the garment or the updated garment in a first area, and displaying the garment in a second area separate from the first area.
8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the user interface elements include at least a first user interface element activating a drawing function for adding a style line in the garment, a second user interface element for editing a length or width of a pattern piece of the garment, and a third user interface element editing a style line in the garment.
9. The method of claim 8 , wherein one of the first interface element, the second user interface element and the third user interface element is activated at a time.
10. The method of claim 1 , wherein duplicating the selected pattern piece comprises:
identifying a two-dimensional (2D) pattern piece corresponding to the selected pattern piece; and
generating a 2D duplicated pattern piece corresponding to the selected pattern piece based on the identified two-dimensional pattern piece.
11. The method of claim 10 , wherein generating the 2D duplicated pattern piece comprises generating new sewing connections between the identified two-dimensional pattern piece and the 2D duplicated pattern piece.
12. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
displaying the plurality of pattern pieces and the duplicated pattern piece in an exploded view, wherein the sewing connections are represented as sewing lines between edges of the plurality of pattern pieces and the duplicated pattern piece.
13. The method of claim 12 , wherein the input updating the subset of the sewing connections is received at sewing lines representing the subset of sewing connections.
14. The method of claim 13 , wherein the input updating the subset of sewing connections indicates editing of the sewing lines representing the subset of sewing connections.
15. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions thereon, the instructions when executed by a processor cause the processor to:
display a garment including a plurality of pattern pieces in three-dimensional (3D) virtual space;
receive selection of a pattern piece of the plurality pattern pieces in the three-dimensional virtual space;
duplicating the selected pattern piece responsive to receiving the selection of the pattern piece;
automatically set sewing connections between the duplicated pattern piece and the selected pattern piece;
receive an input updating a subset of the sewing connections to generate an updated garment including the duplicated pattern piece connected to the selected pattern piece; and
perform simulation of the updated garment in the three-dimensional virtual space.
16. A computing device, comprising:
a processor; and
memory storing instruction that cause the processor to:
display a garment including a plurality of pattern pieces in three-dimensional (3D) virtual space,
receive selection of a pattern piece of the plurality pattern pieces in the three-dimensional virtual space,
duplicate the selected pattern piece responsive to receiving the selection of the pattern piece,
automatically set sewing connections between the duplicated pattern piece and the selected pattern piece,
receive an input updating a subset of the sewing connections to generate an updated garment including the duplicated pattern piece connected to the selected pattern piece, and
perform simulation of the updated garment in the three-dimensional virtual space.
