Topstitch won't appear during the simulation.
Hi everyone!
I was wondering if there is a way to see the topstitch while simulating. I'm using a chain as OBJ for this, I noticed when I use the obj as "Texture" it shows up but it's flat. But as soon as I try to use the OBJ with its real volume it only shows up when simulation is off.
Thanks in advance!

Hi antna
When using an OBJ topstitch they will not appear when simulation is turned on. This is to keep simulation speed up. So you will only see topstitch when Simulation is off

The need to see the simulation whilst it is operating is possibly 'semantic'. It's nice to see elements in all their detail as you simulate - but is it needed given the simulation is determined by physical collision outside most of your immediate control ? In other words it's going to do what it will do irrespective of user interference until that simulation stops using the assembly constraints you place on the garment (for control). It is what it is - however you may tweak and adjust the result using tools after it has simulated. The reduced mesh acts like a 'object' placeholder with boundaries determined by the objects offset, so in many respects the speed of the collision is the most useful element > then tweak after. You may also 'solidify' a pattern object prior to simulation if you want to hold a specific chain drape, that gives you some control over fixing that prior to more detailed simulation, where you can pull it around during the simulation to interact with cloth - yet hold the chains basic shape.

ottoline thank you for sharing...your knowledge is invaluable!

Hiiii everyoneee! Ok so, if I got it right what matters the most to me is the physical property of the obj, so It's not big deal if I can't see it at the simulation, I continue working on it in strenght fabric mode until exporting the file. Thank you very muuuch all!
