Hello all,

There were several posts recently regarding the positioning of the side seam waist indent in fitted blouses and dresses. And, there were several posts about fitted tops that were too snug at the ab level.

These are the same issue and we believe that the cause was that the waist position needed for pants is not necessarily the exact position needed for blouses and dreses.

We have a possible change to Dress Shop that should correct this condition and allow the user to adjust the waist position of blouses and dresses independently of pants. There is a patch file posted that anyone that is intereted may try. It can be found at:

Patch: http://www.LivingsoftNW.com/patch.htm

If you do not have a problem with your fitted blouse and dress waist positioning, you do not need this patch.

This change should have few, if any side effects to your other Dress Shop patterns. But, we have also posted a patch (same page) that lets you undo this one and get back what you had before.

Anything that we ever refer to as a patch will only work on the latest updates. Patches are very small additions to the current version only.

NOTE: This patch file may only be used on top of an existing, working installation of
Dress Shop 5.29 OR Dress Shop 6.12. IT WILL WORK FOR BOTH OF THESE VERSIONS.
