Bust point

German:
Brustpunkt

The bust point is the most prominent point of the bust. It is the pivot every dart is rotated around.

In the file

It is a point, not a line, and it sits inside the contour. It only survives into the file if it is placed as a mark, because contour detection has nothing to grip on there.
