Part measurements

The measurements and optionalMeasurements properties on the part configuration object list the part's required and optional measurements respectively.

You should only include what's required by the part itself, not its dependencies

measurements

The measurements property should hold the names of the measurements that are required to draft the current part.

const part = {
  name: 'example.front',
  measurements: [ 'head', 'chest' ],
  draft: ({ part }) => part
}

optionalMeasurements

The optionalMeasurements property should hold the names of the measurements that are optional to draft the current part.

import { pluginBust } from '@freesewing/plugin-bust'

const part = {
  name: 'example.front',
  plugins: [ pluginBust ],
  measurements: [ 'head', 'chest' ],
  optionalMeasurements: [ 'highBust' ],
  draft: ({ part }) => part
}

Although they are specified via the part configuration optionalMeasurements property, optional measurements are accessed via the 'measurements' settings property.

(There is no optionalMeasurements settings property.)`
