At first, I assumed (incorrectly, it turns out) that this would somehow affect how the cloth bends and folds. After all, something that's incredibly dense will fold less easily than something that's a lot less dense. How wrong I was! Instead, the reverse sometimes happens from what you'd expect with a 'dense' (using my incorrect definition) cloth.

For sure! Just think of a light cotton dress. Not very dense. Doesn't drape much either but holds it's shape a little more. Now think of velvet. Very heavy and dense. Drapes over every curve and crease ;o).

They might have made it understood better if they had named it "Cloth Weight" rather than Density since that's what it really equates to ;o).

Now you're talking, Laurie! *You've made sense of it based on what it actually does and have come up with a name and a behavior for it that makes sense to the rest of us. *THANK you!! And this is the point of this thread: making this complex room a little less so. I reckon these pointers should end up in a FAQ or wiki or something. Of course, it would be nice if SM were paying attention.
