Loading multisize to new pattern shows error message

Seamly v2025.6.23.216, Windows 11

When I create a new pattern then load a multisize pattern , a message appears that ‘Gradation doesn’t support inches’

I have tried several .smms files and checked that their unit is ‘cm’ .

Right… a pattern in inches can not load a multisize measurement file that’s in cm. Thus the warning - not an error. We could have it not throw the warning and confuse users. :thinking:

Granted the message could be better worded - as it’s backwards, but then we’re talking RT here. It should be more along the lines “Patterns in inches do not support multisize measurement files”.

More appropriately we should have the “Load Multisize” grey out when the pattern units are inches, and the warning message box becomes moot.

BTW… the only reason why there is the metric restriction is this:

The height and size text is hardcoded to metric sizes.

Yeah, the hard coding of the height and size is a serious problem.

Adding different “label” lists that a user can select from is pretty straight forward. The bigger issue is the moving this:

To SeamlyMe where it belongs.

If that’s the Only reason for the restriction, I think it would be acceptable in the indefinite short-term to change “Height:” to “Height(cm)”

Actually the solution in general is to just set the suffix of the height spinbox to the current pattern units. :slightly_smiling_face:
