Use Point Cutwork Line 
to place points to define a line to be cut using cutwork needles. Create two or four needle lines automatically, with secure points and stabilizing lines according to the selected Cutwork options.
Click to insert points for the line, then adjust the nodes as desired, or place more points. Click Delete to remove the last-placed point. Right-click to place the line on the work area.
If the desired line is not achieved when created initially, either redo the line or select and move the group area of stitch points you wish to change.
