Density

Set Density from 2 to 15. The lower the number, the closer together the stitches and the more stitches are produced. The initial setting is 4.

Density02718.jpg

 

Embroidery on thicker fabrics usually looks better with more stitch coverage, or a low density setting. Choose a low value such as 2 or 3 for heavy knit fabrics, a higher value such as 5 or 6 for a light material like linen or satin.

Width

Set Width for satin border from 1 to 12mm. The initial setting is 4mm.

Underlay

Use this option to place edge walk underlay inside each edge of the satin border. Underlay will not be generated if the Border Width is set below 2mm.

Closed Border

Set the line as an open line or a closed line (a shape).

Use Closed Border to change an open line to a closed one, or vice versa. This allows you to create a fill area with a closed or open border (a border that runs all the way around a fill area, or only part of the way).

Insert Color Change

Insert a color change between a border line and the enclosed fill area. The Color Selection dialog is displayed.

See Color Selection.

Insert Color Change is only used when the line forms the border to a fill area.
