Some types of fill areas have an origin, marked by an orange circle 
. This is used to move the start point for the pattern in a pattern fill, or the center point for Radial fill, Spiral fill and Shape fill types.
Note: Use the Origin to control how the pattern is repeated in a pattern fill area, and use the handle to change the angle of the fill.
For Radial fill, Spiral fill and Shape fill areas, the origin can also be moved. This sets the center point for the fill, such as the point from which stitches radiate on a Radial fill.
Move the Origin for Areas
-
Drag the origin marker
to the desired position. The origin can be moved anywhere on the design area.
You can create several of the same types of fill area with a common origin. Move the origin to the same grid position for all the desired areas, so that the pattern of stitches is unified across the group of areas. Here, Radial Fill is used.
