Fitting Clothes and Mesh Smoothing

Patroklos

I am trying to understand the effects of the various mesh smoothing controls.

Is there a crib sheet on what each control does or do I have to go through hundreds of iterations myself?

How does weight, secondary weight, lock distance, length influence & collisions smoothing interval affect the fit?

I understand what collision and smoothing iterations are, but what numbers do I need to achieve various effects?

Obviously loose trousers, tight trousers and tights fit differently, how do I achieve each effect?

Any help in this would be much appreciated.:-)
