How would I create a closed arch drapery panel either pinch pleat or gathered. I see many that are pulled back but I need to create a closed panel not pulled back for an half circle and for a quarter circle.

Try using the Pinch Pleat Closed image to get the straight lines for the folds of the drapery and then use the pinch pleat component heading and space around the arch to follow the curve. You would create a polygon shape to create an entire background so it could be filled. Then use the line tool to trace the lines in the Pinch Pleat Closed image to create the drapery folds. I am typing fast as I am headed out the door. I will check back in this afternoon to see how you're doing.
The arch drapery images in Studio that you have already found will help you visualize the end result.

I used the close bezier tool to get the shape and then the pleated heading and lines (ungrouped from a 1.5 wom pinch pleat) to make the arched straight hang drapery. It's a bit challenging to manipulate all the edit points but this might work for you. Be careful if you ungroup the attached .mms file.Attached Files
