☑  Make sure you have a sample size selected. This too can be selected through your techpack settings area.

☑  Gradings are only functional on your selected size columns. Learn more about the difference between size & non-size columns.

NOTE:  If you enter the grading value in a size smaller than the sample size, you must add the -(ve) sign before the value. For eg: (-1/4).

 

 

Step 4: Once you have completed adding the grade values, switch back to your measurements view as shown in the gif below.

Step 1: Type the grade rule in the size where you want to edit the grading value manually.

Step 2: Toggle back to measurements. The measurements will adjust as per the edited grade rule. 

 

The gif below explains how it's done using the grade rule.
