Hi everyone,I've noticed that using trims as functional buckles in CLO 3D is still quite a challenge for many designers—including myself. Especially when we're aiming for accurate simulation and real-time interaction between two pieces of fabric (like closing straps or belts), the results can be inconsistent or even frustrating.Often, the fabric-buckle interaction doesn’t behave naturally, and tweaking the settings doesn't always fix it. Whether it’s the simulation speed, the trim properties, or the positioning, something always feels a bit off.I’m curious to hear from you all:<ul><li>Have you found a reliable workflow for buckles that actually interact with fabric during simulation?</li><li>Do you use custom trims or workaround methods like pins, tack buttons, or internal lines?</li><li>Are there any plug-ins or updates that helped improve this?</li></ul>Let’s share tips or even small tricks that made a difference in your projects. Would love to learn from your experience—and help others, too!Thanks in advance 🙌Vida<img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202506/bc5e0ecec2b74a88822271b66085f32d/images/94449f3b530f4b128d52cc0b56c219acScreenshot%202025-06-18%20at%2016.05.34.png" alt="94449f3b530f4b128d52cc0b56c219ac" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="94449f3b530f4b128d52cc0b56c219ac" data-width="920" data-height="888">

Using Trims as Buckles in CLO 3D – Still a Challenge?

I need to create a fabric object in which areas of pieces of fabric are glued together, not sewn. Only part not all of the pairs of pieces are glued so I can't just cheat it with a single piece. If I just sew the boundary of the glued area then the inner areas aren't flush. I can't find anything online about this. Thanks
