Thanks for this tutorial this is really helpful, but it will be nice if you can edit the practice file to be the same as the original how you start the tutorial because I would like to follow how you do but all the actions are already applied in practice files.

[@CLO3D]

Thank you for the feedback., We will take this into account for future tutorials

Weird. 2 Questions. On my Marvelous Designer 10- I do not have the option to change the topstitch from OBJ to texture. Also- I do not see the puckering option anywhere on interface. Been trying to search for hours as well as asking the developer. No responses.

[@CLO3D]

As this video is about Clo3d it does have different features than Marvelous Designer. Marvelous Designer does not have the puckering feature that clo has, users have previously found in older versions that they did not like the puckering texture in Marvelous Designer and it was removed.

Hello, Great job on the tutorials, they are very clear and informative. I have one doubt, I cannot really see the puckering on the 3D garment after I’ve applied it. Nothing changes visually, the seams are not very distinguishable for me (at all, not just in this chapter of the programme) I’m working with a Mac Pro 2017. Could this cause the issue? Thank you.

[@CLO3D]

Hi. Make sure that you have Puckering Turned on in the 3D vertical Toggle for the 3D window. You can find a tutorial about the toggle here : studio.kzbin.infoD4Y1p1n69c0/edit Do you see puckering when you turn on the Render Engine? For your mac the age of your computer may be the cause. Make sure you have updated to the latest OS. You can also find our Recommended specs here : support.clo3d.com/hc/en-us/articles/115000307168-CLO-system-requirements-September-2023-

[@Pirinei3]

@@CLO3D Yes, I do have the 3D toggle settings correct. Unfortunately, even after watching the tutorial you linked, my view of the seams is basically non existent. The depth is not there. Also for the puckering, which does seem to work once I have added the elastic band like in one of the previous tutorials. But by itself, it is not visible in 3D nor render. The specs of my laptop in relation to Clo’s are good, they achieve the minimum and lean more towards the recommended side.

Hii @Clo3d Actually when put tops sitch in 2d windows it is not visible in 3d windows what is the option for this.??

[@CLO3D]

Hi. The stitches when applied correctly should be \visible in both 2D and 3D. Unless you have simulation turned on. Then you will not see them. For further questions we recommend posting to our Community Forums or Official Discord as this will allow you to add photos for reference

[@babyitsnatural]

these are exclusive to CLO and not in Marvelous Designer?

[@CLO3D]

Hi Un. Puckering does not work the same in MD as it does in CLO. You can find further information here marvelousdesigner.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/5027611382425-Puckering-menu-missing There is Topstitching in MD and they are their own youtube where you can find lots of tutorials kzbin.info/www/bejne/mZTanWuVfcllga8

Where can i get "Topstich" folder? My "hardware & trims" folder only have "Buttons" & "Zipper"

[@CLO3D]

Click the "Download" icon at the top of the Library Panel; this will check your assets and should give you anything that is new or missing.

I am using displacement map for all over print. How do I make the topstitch 3d effect to show through?

[@CLO3D]

I would suggest posting this in our support forum with screenshots. support.clo3d.com/hc/en-us

[@lisangshan]

I loved this video, i have a question, is there an option where i can see the topstitch in the simulation?

[@CLO3D]

Topstitch is not available during simulation. Each stitch is an OBJ and simulating all of this would be too much.

[@pluto814]

@@CLO3D If topstitch is texture..then will it be visible in simulation?

[@saakurax3]

can I topstitch through multiple layers making them stick to one another?

[@Zeddy8365nkl]

@CLO I want to know too... why are the topstitches only superficial?

[@CLO3D]

Sorry for the late response. Were you able to solve your issue?

[@saakurax3]

@@CLO3D yes! I can’t remember how though lool

[@SlyerPass]

The offset is in inches even when you're working in cm, such a pity

[@CLO3D]

I just tried this and if the units are changed in the user settings, the offset is in CM.

[@landogarcia-rangel831]

Hello, How do you top stitch through multiple layers?

[@CLO3D]

Top stitch is applied only to the top layer. Sewing/stitching is not done the same as it is in the real world. You can apply the topstitch to all layers to visually it appears to go through all layers.

[@litontaher3653]

how marge line and un marge in clo?

[@CLO3D]

Using the edit pattern tool shift select the two segments you wish to merge. Right Click--> Merge. To "unmerge" you would select the segment, Right Click--> Cut

[@komalupadhya4551]

Why my top stitch is not visible. Please help

[@CLO3D]

You might have simulation on. When simulation is ON (arrow is blue) the top stitches disappear to help speed up simulation, this is normal. When you turn simulation off (arrow is grey) they will appear again

[@komalupadhya4551]

@@CLO3D oh... I thought it appears when simulation is off as well. Tysm for your quick support really appreciate it ♥️. Also can we increase the width of the stitck? Incase i want it to be visible like you see in jeans it has thick sewing lines.

[@CLO3D]

@@komalupadhya4551 Yes you can increase the Thread Thickness number to make the tread thicker. There is an area called Offset that will increase the distance of the stitch from the edge (similar to how hem heights are measured). There is also Width which will increase the actual width of a stitch that has this, such as Zig Zag or Overlock. When you change to these stitch types Width will then appear in the property editor. If you are on single needle then you will not see width. If you want to create a Double needle this will be found at the very bottom of the topstitch editor, change Number of lines to 2 (or more) and then distance will appear below that. Offset will still move these two lines together - offset will be measured to the bottom stitch in this case.
