Fixing Frames and Flourishes as Embroideries
Frames and flourishes are fixed as an embroidery when they are Combined with another design, or when Fix as Stitches is used. See Fix as Stitches.
If a frame or flourish is selected when opening the Modify 
window, it will be fixed. The stitches are then created, and any further resizing or rescaling of the embroidery will affect stitch density and length. The stitch properties, for example the density, pattern, angle or stitch length, may not be changed after it is fixed.
Note: When frames are fixed as embroideries, the handles change from green to white or blue. After a frame has been converted to embroidery, it can no longer be changed with Frame properties.
