Application of Python in The Development of Hedgehog Software to Save and Simulate Graph Design for Sarong Pattern Fabric

Abstract

The main aim of this research is to use Python to create a software tool for saving and simulating a graph design of a sarong pattern cloth. This developed program is the Headhawk program which runs on Windows 10 using Python 3.9.2. Tkinter is a library that aids in the development of various components of the Hedgehog software. The software includes two important tools: 1) the tool for designing the graph sarong pattern cloth and 2) the tool for recording. For the menu of tools used to graphs design of sarong pattern fabric. It includes the Tools menu, as well as the options to create new, load existing data, choose color, export to PDF, and delete. In the saving tools menu section, there are Save, Save As, and create a thumbnail. Three pattern graphs, comprising the Chiang Saen swan pattern graph, were designed for the experiment results of the design of the graph sarong pattern, big swan pattern and a swan patterned graph with a crest. Furthermore, the Hedgehog software increases the efficiency of stored sarong patterns, both the main pattern and the accompanying pattern. This allows the weavers to accurately simulate the original pattern graph and save time for starting a new graph.
