Valentina - Pattern making program.

Author

       This  manual  page  was  written  by Roman Telezhynskyi <dismine@gmail.com>

Description

Valentina  is  a cross-platform patternmaking program which allows designers to create and model patterns
       of clothing. This  software  allows  pattern  creation,  using  either  multisize  sizing  tables  or  an
       individual’s  set of measurements. It blends new technologies with traditional methods to create a unique
       pattern making tool.

Example

       Export a layout to tiled PDF:
              valentina--basenametest--destination/home/user/tiled--format33--mfile/home/user/measurements/m1.vit--pedantic

       Export pieces to DXF AAMA bypassing the layout stage:
              valentina--basenametest--destination/home/user/aama--format18--mfile/home/user/measurements/m1.vit--exportOnlyDetails--pedantic--exportSuchDetails.

       Export a layout to tiled PDF with final measurements:
              valentina--basenametest--destination/home/user/tiled--format33--mfile/home/user/measurements/m1.vit--pedantic--csvExportFM/home/user/tiled/test.csv

Options

       -h, --help
              Displays this help.

       -v, --version
              Displays version information.

       -b, --basename <The base filename of layout files>
              The base filename of exported layout files. Use it to enable console exportmode.

       -d, --destination <The destination folder>
              The path to output destination folder. By default the  directory  at  which  the  application  was
              started. The path must exists and be reachable for the program.

       -m, --mfile <The measure file>
              Path to custom measure file (exportmode).

              quit without showing the main window. The key have priority before key “basename”.

       --pedantic
              Make all parsing warnings into errors. Have effect only in console mode. Use to force Valentina to
              immediately terminate if a pattern contains a parsing warning.

       --no-scaling
              Disable  high  dpi  scaling.  Call  this  option  if  has problem with scaling (by default scaling
              enabled). Alternatively you can use the QT_AUTO_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTOR=0 environment variable.

       --csvWithHeader
              Export to csv with header. By default disabled.

       --csvCodec <Codec name>
              Specify codec that will be used to save data. List of supported codecs  provided  by  Qt.  Default
              value depend from system. On Windows, the codec will be based on a system locale. On Unix systems,
              the  codec  will might fall back to using the iconv library if no builtin codec for the locale can
              be found. Valid values usually these:
