Hello, I would like to know how I could create this kind of pattern. The satin doesn't make a simple straight line but expands or contracts. I have not found the function for this in the satin. Thanks and have a good day
For satin columns you draw the two sides and set direction lines to indicate how the stitches should be placed.
Additionally you have to measure the stitch length. Avoid to generate stitches larger than 12 mm. Most machines will cut stitches longer than that. If you have to create wider satin columns, consider to enable split stitches by setting a maximum stitch length in the satin params.
Also avoid to generate satin columns which are too small. If you cannot avoid it, try to lengthen the stitch through a slightly adapted stitch angle through the direction lines.
Hope this helps. As @Aero said, the inkstitch website is always a good resource to get information about specific stitch types. At the moment there are much more options listed than available in the current latest release (2.2.0). This is because it is already prepared for the upcoming release, sorry about that.
And maybe you know a way to automate this process? For example, using example 1 to automatically take the outlines and convert them to a satin column Or simply have me create the outlines and have it add the rungs itself. Exemple 1 https://i.imgur.com/qEbNmUJ.png Exemple 2 https://imgur.com/2OhFcvL.png Thanks.
@Toryar1 No, currently there is no automated way to create satin columns with varying width. For satins with a constant width you can run the tsroke to satin converter in the satin tools section.
In your first example you are using a power stroke. I had plans to write something up, which converts a power stroke into a satin, but haven't come to it yet.
For your second example, you only need to add at least one rung to make it run nicely.

Thanks to you, I had searched but obviously not correctly
