Crotch width in pants
Hi, all........

I found an interesting site that explains how to determine one's crotch
width (www.lindrix.com/pattern/pantfit.html) and I think this might be
the key to solving an abdomen "ease" issue. So, I tried in DressShop to expand the crotch width by lengthening the crotch extensions, but DS actually made the crotch width narrower when I did so! To give an idea of what I'm dealing with, I have a tilted waist (front higher than back), prominent ab from years of wind playing, and an average-to-flat tush.

I know how to do this by hand, but does anyone have any ideas as to how
to expand the crotch width within the program? We're taking an Alaska
cruise in August, and I'd love to have some new clothes (yes, I'll need
pants!) to wear.

Thanks for any help anyone can throw my way.

Barb it sounds like you want to increase crotch extensions but leave the torso dimensions as they are...so you want more crotch length as well.
