Re: Plate development problem in free Delftship 4.38.130

Although I do not yet have a consistent understanding, or procedure, I’ve discovered the main difficulty or confusion I had been having. On the plate developments, the colors of the plates where representing the *colored* hull sides and *below the waterline* surfaces in a another color that was very close to the background color, giving the the strange plate shapes since the shape followed the above the waterline shapes. Got a good laugh! :laugh:

Mike, your last post was helpful. Thank you again. 🙂 With a little more practice, I’m on the way to developing a repeatable skill and success…

It would be nice to be able to save the plate developments screen. If it is possible, that may be what I discover tommorrow. For now, I am saving screen snapshots to work out nesting diagrams.

Time to make some prototype paperboard models….
