Circle

Place embroideries in a circle and set the number of repeats. Adjust the circle to form an ellipse.

 

Repeats: Set the total number of copies of the selected embroidery(ies) that will form the circle of repeated embroideries. Set the number of repeats from 2 to 360.

Note: If more than one embroidery is selected, the number of repeats of each embroidery is divided by the number of embroideries. So 10 repeats of 2 embroideries produces 5 of each embroidery.

To Adjust an Encore Circle

• Drag inside the circle using the four-headed arrow Move pointer to position it.

• Drag one of the embroideries or the circle where they are placed, using the cross-hair pointer , to make the circle smaller or larger. See Create a SuperDesign Daisy Chain and Flowers in an Encore Circle.

• Drag the white handle on the right to change the circle to an ellipse.
