• Each pattern must completely fit within a
single area (a, b, or c).
1: The position of this pattern is correct since
it fits completely within area a.
2: The position of this pattern is correct since
it fits completely within either area b or
area c.
3: The size of this pattern is acceptable, but
its position must be corrected since it
does not fit completely within any of the
areas.
(It will be necessary to correct the position
in order to fit in either b or c.)
4: This pattern must be corrected since it is
too large.
(It will be necessary to correct the position
and size in order to fit in either a, b, or c.)

Note:
If a pattern does not meet the conditions
mentioned above, a warning will appear
when continuing to the next step.

Optimizing hoop changes

With the Optimize hoop change function, the sewing
order of patterns in a Design Page for multi-position
hoops is automatically optimized, therefore
reducing the risk of the embroidery being sewn
incorrectly or the fabric not feeding evenly when the
hoop position is changed too often.
1.
Click Sew, then Optimize hoop change.
