Description
Record the stated fabric direction and nap convention.
Garment geometry distinguishes body and finished dimensions, elastic rest length, seamline/cutline offsets, motif phases and joining losses. A nominal coordinate or length budget does not establish material behavior or a suitable fit. Direction, angle units and the number of gaps rather than objects affect the result.
Record the stated fabric direction and nap convention.
When to use this tool
Use Fabric Direction Nap Pair Tag when checking the stated garment length, allowance, repeat or material-record convention.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter pieceId, grainDirectionText, napDirectionText. Use the units and conventions below.
- Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
- Read token. Use the output convention below.
Require nonempty piece ID, grain-direction text and nap-direction text. Encode the ordered triple as JSON text.1
| Input field | Meaning and units | Accepted input |
|---|---|---|
| pieceId | Piece Id | Required. Text; minimum UTF-16 length 1; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |
| grainDirectionText | Grain Direction Text | Required. Text; minimum UTF-16 length 1; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |
| napDirectionText | Nap Direction Text | Required. Text; minimum UTF-16 length 1; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |
| Output field | Interpretation | Returned shape |
|---|---|---|
| token | JSON-encoded ordered tuple or literal token under the convention above; not a database lookup or authentication result. | Required. Text; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |
{
"input": {
"pieceId": "P17",
"grainDirectionText": "lengthwise",
"napDirectionText": "toward top"
},
"output": {
"token": "[\"P17\",\"lengthwise\",\"toward top\"]"
}
}Limitations and assumptions
- The text is not parsed or physically verified; no cutting orientation, fabric behavior or suitable layout is determined.
- Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Use measured pattern/material properties, fitting evidence and appropriate complete production methods for actual garment fit and construction.
