The Soft Goods tool creates a curved or straight stage curtain or border. To draw a curtain, either use the Soft Goods tool, or create a polyline and then select the Create Objects from Shapes command (see Creëer objecten op basis van vormen).

To display hanging points for soft goods objects, enable Hanging Point Classes in the Braceworks preferences (see Braceworks preferences).

To insert a curtain or border:

1.      Click the tool and the creation mode. The Corner Vertex or Point on Arc modes are recommended. For more information on the polyline drawing modes, see Polylijnen tekenen.

2.Click Preferences to open the object properties dialog box.

3.Select either Curtain or Border from the Function list, and specify the tool’s other default parameters. The curtain or border parameters can be edited later from the Object Info palette. However, certain parameters are not available for borders.

4.Click to set the soft goods object’s start point.

5.Click to set the end of the segment and the beginning of the next. Continue drawing segments in this manner until the curtain or border object is complete, and then double-click.

Once created, the soft goods object can be reshaped by double-clicking on it. The Reshape tool is automatically activated, to reshape the object directly in the drawing.
