Using the ExpressMonogram Wizard

"Can I edit my monogram after placing it on the work area?"

When you have created a monogram and placed it in the work area, right-click it and select Properties to reopen the ExpressMonogram Wizard with the monogram loaded. The pale green handles indicate that the monogram has not been fixed as an embroidery, and can still be adjusted in the ExpressMonogram Wizard.

"How do I save my monogram so I can adjust it later?"

If your monogram in the work area has pale green handles (indicating that it has not been fixed as an embroidery), you can save it individually, or as part of a selection or group in a .vp4 file.

"I have used a motif as an envelope border and the results are unexpected."

If the selected motif width is larger than the size of the monogram or name, then only one motif may be created. Adjusting lettering or motif size or spacing may allow multiple motifs to be included in the border. If the selected motif shape is irregular it may overlap the monogram. Adjusting lettering or motif size or spacing may produce the desired results.

"How can I resize my monogram on the work area?"

When a monogram is resized on the work area, it is fixed as a group of embroideries and you will not be able to edit the text. To change the size of a monogram without fixing it, right-click and select Properties in the Context menu to open it in the ExpressMonogram Wizard. You can then resize the letters within the monogram, and the border around it.
