When drawing Free Motion, Horizontal ZigZag, Rotational ZigZag and Calligraphy, stitches are added continuously while the pen is in contact with the tablet (or until the mouse button is released). Move the pen faster to add stitch points further apart, or slower to add stitch points close together.
Trims and tie-offs are added automatically at the end of each section. Use Stitches Preferences to change the settings for tie-offs, and the minimum gap for trims.
Each new section of stitching that you draw is one undo step, so that if you use Undo
, you will only undo the last continuous line of stitches.
Insert Stop Commands to allow appliqué or decoration to be added. See Add Stop.
