The Naming of Seams

Traditionally, the name of a seam has been on the form <seam_group_name><seam_number>. The <seam_group_name> is registered in the Hull Reference Object, which is initialized by the program Initiate Hull Standards. The <seam_number> can be in the range 1 to 9999.

If the logical SBH_FREE_SEAMPROF_NAMES is set to YES, a seam may be given an arbitrary name. All seams are then identified with their full names, that is never by only a seam number.

It is not recommended to change the setting of SBH_FREE_SEAMPROF_NAMES once seams have been created in a project!
