To increase density with the Imperial system, you increase the
measurement number. With the Metric system, a higher number
of points indicates a lower density. The following example
shows what happens when you increase and decrease the
density in embroidery points and stitches per inch.
Design Workspace
The design workspace includes the toolbars, menus, ribbon,
and the design window containing the design you are editing.
You can change the look and functionality of your design
workspace by showing or hiding these elements.
Fill Stitch
Series of running stitches commonly used to cover large areas.
Different fill patterns can be created by altering the angle,
length, and repeat sequence of the stitches.
Handles
Handles are the small boxes at each corner of the selection box
you see around active segments. If you point to a handle, the
pointer becomes a double-sided arrow. You can click and drag
the handle to resize the selected segment or segments
proportionally. Clicking and dragging the control points on the
left and right side of a handle will resize the segment by width.
Clicking and dragging the control points on the top and bottom
sides of a handle will resize the segment by height.
Hoop
Device made from wood, plastic or steel with which fabric is
gripped tightly between an inner ring and an outer ring. It
attaches to the machine's pantograph. Machine hoops are
designed to push the fabric to the bottom of the inner ring and
hold it against the machine bed for embroidering.
