Some of these links were actually broken, since they expect to find designs under the `packages/` directory in the current `develop` branch. Other links were technically okay, since they link to old commits, but updating those links may still help to reduce confusion. Also fix a reference to `packages/unice` in a `netlify.toml` file. (Untested, but I don't think this is an actual Netlify configuration.)

When you have different pattern parts that look similar -- like the front
|
|
and back of a garment -- you may find that there's a lot of dimensions
|
|
shared between them.
|
|
|
|
The example below is from Aaron where dimensions are shared between
|
|
the back and front part.
|
|
|
|
Aaron has a file called `shared.js` that looks like this:
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
export function dimensions(macro, points, sa) {
|
|
macro('hd', {
|
|
from: points.cfHem,
|
|
to: points.hem,
|
|
y: points.hem.y + sa * 2.5 + 15
|
|
})
|
|
// more dimensions here
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
In both `front.js` and `back.js` we use this code to add these shared dimensions:
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
import { dimensions } from './shared'
|
|
|
|
// ...
|
|
|
|
if (paperless) {
|
|
dimensions(macro, points, sa)
|
|
// ... specific dimensions
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
<Note>
|
|
|
|
Since our shared dimension method is a so-called _named export_ we need to
|
|
import it with the syntax you see above.
