A count gives equal intervals
Subtract the two end insets from the flat width. Divide that span by one less than the number of rings.
See the known-count example →CURTAIN DETAILS · EQUAL CENTRES
Mark even ring centres across a finished panel laid flat. Start with the rings you have, or a maximum spacing you choose. See every position from the same finished edge.
Measure the flat panel, not the rail. This is a centre-position model. It does not calculate hung fullness, pleats, eyelet-hole size, hardware clearance or load. Use your actual hardware instructions when choosing a count and inset.

Subtract the two end insets from the flat width. Divide that span by one less than the number of rings.
See the known-count example →Round the required number of intervals up, then add one ring. Actual spacing can be smaller than your chosen maximum.
See the maximum-spacing example →Ring centres are a separate measurement. Use the original curtain calculator to compare panel packs or full-width fabric drops.
