Fixing SuperDesigns as Embroideries
Fixing SuperDesigns as Embroideries
SuperDesigns are fixed as an embroidery when the Modify tab is selected, Fix as Stitches 
is used, or they are Combined with another design. The stitches are then created, and any further resizing of the embroidery may 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. Appliqué fabric cannot be changed in the Context menu after the SuperDesign is fixed, but you may use the Select Appliqué features on the Appliqué tab.
When SuperDesigns are fixed as stitches, the handles change from green to white. After a SuperDesign has been converted to embroidery, it can no longer be changed with SuperDesign properties, and the stitch types cannot be adjusted. If the Resize
mode is selected, the handles will become blue.
To reverse fixing as an embroidery, click Undo
.
To fix a SuperDesign as an embroidery deliberately, right-click it and select Fix as Stitches
from the Context menu, or select Fix as Stitches in the Combine drop-down menu in the Home tab.
