Load Embroideries with Drag and Drop

To drag and drop as many embroideries as desired onto the screen, use Windows® Explorer. Hold down the Shift key to select a consecutive group of embroideries. Hold down the Ctrl key to select individual embroideries.

The following embroidery file formats may be loaded: Bernina (.art version 1, 2, 3), Brother/Baby Lock/Bernina PEC (.pec), Brother/Baby Lock/Bernina PES (.pes version 2 - 10), Compucon/Singer PSW (.xxx), Husqvarna Viking / Pfaff (.vp4, .vp3 and .vip), Husqvarna (.hus, .shv and .dhv), Janome (.jef and .sew), Melco (.exp), Pfaff (.pcs), Tajima (.dst) and Toyota (.10*).

Only Husqvarna Viking / Pfaff (.vp4, .vp3 and .vip) embroidery files contain full thread color information that will be shown in the original thread colors. Other files that hold some color information, such as .hus, .shv, .dhv, .pcs, .pes, .sew and .xxx, are shown in the nearest match to the colors in which they were created. The shades are converted to the Import Thread Range, as selected in mySewnet™ Configure. For files that do not store colors, such as .dst, .exp and .10*, the embroidery will be shown in a default color sequence, using thread colors from the Import Thread Range.

Use Open to load individual files. Use Insert to add a file to the current project. Open Recently Used Embroideries with the Recent function. Use Windows® Explorer to select an embroidery by key words in the file name or Notes. Use Paste to insert a file from the clipboard.

The same embroidery can be opened as many times as desired. Each time it is opened, a new copy of the embroidery is added to the work area.
