Use the on-screen ruler to adjust the settings so that your mySewnet™ Embroidery Software software can display embroideries at their real-world size.
The real size measurement is 100% on the zoom bar.
Hold a ruler against the screen and measure the number of millimeters that correspond to the length of the on-screen ruler. Type this number in the box, then click OK (or press ENTER). The program will close. When you reopen your mySewnet™ Embroidery Software software, embroideries will be displayed at real size if 100% is selected on a zoom Slider, or Real Size in a window.
If an embroidery is too large to be shown at Real Size in a window, the percentage size will be displayed.
Select whether to show and enter measurements in millimeters or inches.
This may be overridden for printing. When Inches is selected, inches are shown as decimal values. Fractions may be used to enter measurements.
The alternative units will be shown when you hover the pointer over a measurement. You may also enter the alternative measurement with units of mm or " (including fractions) and it will be automatically converted. For example, ¼" will be converted to 6mm.
Measurements are initially set to be shown in millimeters.
Cut-out appliqué is used when the Cut-out option is selected under Appliqué Type in the Appliqué Selection dialog box.
