cutlist.addCut()

The cutlist.addCut() store method will add a set of cutting instructions for the part. This information is not use by the core library, it is merely stored.

Signature

cutlist.addCut() accepts either an object or an array of objects with the following signature:

undefined store.cutlist.addCut({
  Number cut,
  String from,
  Bool identical = false,
  Bool onBias = false,
  Bool onFold = false,
})

Pass an object or an array of objects to the cutlist.addCut() method with any of the following keys; any you don't provide will be filled with the defaults:

Key	Type	Default	Description
cut	Number|false	2	The number of parts to cut from the specified material. Pass false to clear cutting instructions for the material
from	String	'fabric'	The (translation key of the) material to cut from
identical	Boolean	false	Should even numbers of parts be cut in the same direction? The default (false) is to mirror them
onBias	Boolean	false	Should the parts be cut on the bias?
onFold	Boolean	false	Should the parts be cut on the fold?

note

You can use any string you want for your material, but here are some standard ones we provide translations for:

Key	Translation
fabric	Main Fabric
lining	Lining
canvas	Canvas
interfacing	Interfacing
ribbing	Ribbing

Code

({ Point, Path, paths, macro, store, part }) => {

	store.cutlist.addCut({cut: 2, from: 'fabric' })
	store.cutlist.addCut({cut: 2, from: 'lining' })

  macro('title', {
    nr: 9,
    title: 'The title',
    at: new Point(0,0),
    scale: 0.5,
  })

  // Prevent clipping
  paths.diag = new Path()
    .move(new Point(-10,-20))
    .move(new Point(80,35))

  return part
}
