When you want to actually build a design, you'll need to print either frames or templates. The File->Print Formers command will allow you to do so.
This function is not restricted to printing templates at the locations of the shape definition formers that you placed. It can also print templates at intermediate locations/stations.
Note, you should print to image files until you've got the settings all the way you want. Then go to paper!
There are various options, discussed individually below:
Z (first)
This is the lengthwise location of the station to print. The Z axis begins at the back of the hull, and extends forward. A 10 in this box, means the first template printed will be for 10 units (cm/in) from the back of the hull.
Z increment
You can print more than one frame station at a time. This is the distance between stations. If you set it to 0, then only one template will be printed.
Print left and right sides of template
You can print either half the cross section of the hull, or the full width.
If this box is unchecked, you'll get just the right side of the hull.
If you check this box, you'll get the full width.
Print inner skin surface
This option is for when you're planning to build the hull using a strip planking technique. The thickness of the hulls skin must be subtracted from the frame template. When this box is checked the reduced frame outline is printed in a solid line. And, the original template outline is printed in a dotted line.
Skin thickness
This option states how thick the hulls skin is. It is only necessary when Print inner skin surface is active.
Print front and back face of frames.
This option is also for when you're planning to build the hull using a strip planking technique.
The frames that the strips lay over have thickness. At stations where the hull is curving rapidly, the forward face of the frame will have a slightly different shape than the rear face. This option allows you to print BOTH faces. The location specified by Z is the rear face. The forward face is Z plus the Frame Thickness. The rear face is printed in a solid line. The forward face is printed in a dashed line. If you also have the Print inner skin surface option on, both the forward and rear face lines will be printed with skin thickness reduction. In this case, the original size rear face outline is printed in a dotted line.
Print to Images files
When this box is checked, WaveCAD will generate a set of image files (BMP), which look like the paper would look if you had printed to paper. This is useful for setting up the print operation. It may also be useful if you want to look at all the station outlines with an image viewer.
