"The embroidery I want to work with appears too small on the screen."
Make sure the mySewnet™ Embroidery window is maximized by clicking the Maximize icon on the title bar. Click Zoom To Fit to expand the hoop so it fills the work area. Also, choose a Hoop Size in Hoop Selection that is suitable to the embroidery size.
"When I hover the mouse pointer over a color in the color worksheet, part of the embroidery changes to an unusual color."
This is called "Highlight Selected Color". It allows you to see where each color is used in an embroidery. For example, if you have several color blocks using the same thread color and you wish to change the color of a specific section, hover over each color in the worksheet in turn until the section you require is highlighted.
"I find it hard to select the part of the embroidery I wish to edit."
Many functions of mySewnet™ Embroidery can be used to help see sections of embroideries more easily. They include the Zoom Commands and the Draw Range. The different methods of selection (Box Select, Freehand Select, Point Select and Select All) are also useful for different situations.
"I've selected the wrong embroidery to move or manipulate."
To deselect an embroidery, click the mouse on another embroidery. To select the desired embroidery, click on it and an outline box will appear. If one embroidery or piece of lettering is overlapping another making it difficult to select, choose the desired embroidery in the FilmStrip. Alternatively, press the Tab key to select each embroidery in turn.
"The color worksheet appears blank."
If no design is selected, the worksheet will be blank. To view and change the threads in an embroidery, select the embroidery, then view the threads in the color worksheet.
"Certain features are always grayed out (unavailable)."
The functions available will depend on your software license. Those that are not available will be grayed out.
