Creating with Freehand and Point Create
Use the Freehand and Point Create functions to create new lines, fill areas or holes (stitch objects) by creating outlines directly on the design. The outlines may follow a background picture, if desired, but the Freehand and Point functions do not require a picture.
Note: If the curve produced does not match the background picture as closely as desired, you can move points in the work area.
The Freehand and Point functions are used either by drawing an outline (the Freehand Create or Tablet functions) or by placing and adjusting points to define an outline (the Point Line or Bezier Line functions).
