i just upgraded to v7 to see if it would solve a couple of issues.

Now I have another.

1)selected fitted bodice pattern

2)selected V neck front and back

3)used neckline tool to set frnt depth to bustline, back depth to low back, width to boat neck. Redraft shows bk shldr dart rotated to armhole - all ok....

4) goto fit tool and select no design ease radio button.

DS immediately redrafts, without clicking redraft button, and inserts shoulder dart in the now 1.5" shldr seam.

And all other available options (neck, fit, extras, etc)except for deisgn, print & sleeve are immediately greyed out.

THIS IS EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING. I spent umpteen hours getting the chart right so DS would draft what I needed and now DS is not right!!!

I tried these same steps with the size 8 standard measurement and it does the same thing so I know it is not my chart.

can anyone else replicate this????

Addl note - this does not happen with the 2 piece bodice top dress.

(there is a line where a bk shldr dart would be but the dart is closed.)

You elected a darted fitted bodice and the dart tool will no longer function for you to unclick the shoulder dart. I tried this and the dart tool locked up on the bodice . Ill report it.
