Helps to visualize and see their imaginative design in final form without producing any sample swatch. Sometimes, The customers too provide ideas for designing according to their particular requirement. These are in the form of painted artwork or fabric samples and sometimes film negatives. The textile designers, with the help of CAD, convert them into workable designs.
For this to be done, the sample is scanned with the help of either scanners or digital cameras and then they are edited to obtain the final design. AutoCAD is a vector-based drawing, all the drawing is based on X, Y co-ordinate (2D or 3D). It is highly accuracy, ability to work in full scale (zoom in/out), rework design ideas and make changes instantly.In Sketching:It is a conceptual process, art work for design purpose. The designer starts drawing from rough sketches which he later needs to trim in order to decide about the final sketches. Sketching is one of the most important steps in designing because the designer has to work through his creativity and knowledge of the trends in order to create something unique yet acceptable.
CAD has made sketching faster and easier but the major advantage of using CAD in sketches comes from the many handy tools that are available in CAD software that are unable to be used in manual drawing method.
