Video Transcript

guys in today's video, we're gonna be looking at the shape rounding and Chan options, and this will be for fabric camp software. But before that, let's have a quick intro first. So today's video can be found on softwaretraining.co.za. And we make short and easy to watch problem solving videos. And we also have daily updates otherwise, back in the programme. Now, like I mentioned, we're gonna be looking at some rounding and champing because this is for the corners of shapes. So it's a great way to, um, smooth it off or around it, Um, if you need be so what I'm gonna do is add a quick, uh, cube over here. Let's go. Um, just gonna get 100 or 100. So OK, single position, place it in. There we go. We've got our cube. Now, the first one, we're gonna be looking at the rounding. So next to the, uh, copy and cut that we looked at, we've got these two. The first one, as you can see, is this round the second one is a champ. So I'm gonna select the round first, and then what? You wanna do is navigate to a hotspot. So if I go to this little hotspot that goes red, zoom in this so you guys can see better. Then once I click that, it's gonna pop up the option about how much do I want? The rounding. So at the moment, I'm gonna put it at 20 and I say, OK, and you can see it there nicely around the corner. And if you had to look at the location, identify at the bottom where we can see the location. So I'm gonna go to this point. I don't know if you can see it, but I'll just not right. So it's currently the X is on zero or 0.22, but it should be zero. And then if I go right, 20 and then that is where our rounding will end. So that's kind of the way you can calculate your chaing. So it's got a rounding of 20 and then, uh, I mean your your rounding, and then next up is our jam. So it's gonna do, uh, a cut out or flat corner. So I'm going to do the same thing. I've selected it. Then I go to the hotspot. Select that. Now you'll see, we get two options. We get an A and an A Y. So over here you can see the X is obviously gonna set it on the X direction and the Y and the y. So if I want the same distance, I can just go to 2020. Say OK. And there you go. We've got a champing of 20 on the X and 20 on the Y. Now, the nice thing with the tampering is obviously you can set it, um, to, uh, different amounts so you can perhaps go to the bottom one. Let's go about 40 and then you can go 20. So then we get it a bit different colour. So we've got a 20 on the X and a 40 on the y so you can get some interesting shapes using this. And then, uh, let's just add one more rounding on the bottom, and then this may make this one a bit more extreme. Go. Also about 40. You got a bigger rounding there. So, like I said, a handy tool, you'll sort of use it a lot with products where you'll either use a rounding for the corners or chambering. Uh, but that will depend on your final product, But yeah, otherwise, that is it on the rounding and tampering. If we head here to softwaretraining.co.za. You guys will notice we've got a variety of different Softwares we do cover. And you can also isolate your search on the top, right? If you do not, however, find the training videos you're looking for, just simply go. Yeah, request the training video, fill in the mini form and then we'll do our best to try and make that for you. But otherwise thanks, guys, for watching and cheers.
