Motif collection: floral foliage
Floral motifs are very popular with us.
That is why we have put together 10 floral foliage motifs in a catalog.
With similar transparency and hole density, they are easy to compare.
All motifs on an area of 3 * 2m.

Transparency as desired
The transparency of the sheets can be controlled as desired.
Balcony railings are very typical here: In the lower area it should usually be denser than above.
We can control the transparency of the surface, whether from a photo template or generated by our pattern generator, see photos.
Our software also calculates the free area for each photo sheet.

Freely selectable line spacing
Normally, the line spacing results automatically from the selected hole spacing.
Now the distances can be freely selected and great effects can be achieved, as can be seen here in examples in combination with the "Jitter" function.
