Monarch Shipping Structure Editor Software for Plaids & Stripes

Glendale, New York - Good news for users of Monarch Design Systems’ popular Plaids & Stripes software, or for anyone who is thinking about owning it; Monarch is now shipping a new standalone program, Structure Editor, which enables designers to create their own customized structures for use in Plaids & Stripes.

Simple to use, Structure Editor brings powerful new functionality to Plaids & Stripes by placing unlimited structures at the designer’s fingertips. The structures that designers create are easily imported into Plaids & Stripes to create additional fabric simulations.

Plaids & Stripes is Monarch’s ground-breaking Adobe Photoshop© plug-in software for quickly creating simple to complex plaid and stripe patterns. Plaids & Stripes includes set structures, such as Plain, Twill, Oxford, and Basket, among others, which can be applied to the plaid and stripe designs to create woven simulations of plaid and stripe patterns.

Structure Editor is currently available for the Windows version of Plaids & Stripes, at the list price of $795 U.S. The product is available directly from Monarch Design Systems, Glendale, NY. A Macintosh version of Structure Editor is in development.
