Instruction Manual

The Properties Panel

The Pacesetter BES Lettering 2 Properties Panel appears on
the right of the workspace. This panel displays, and allows you
to modify, all the properties associated with the lettering in your
designs. These properties include the text properties, the fill
properties, underlay properties, and pull-compensation
properties. Each of these types of properties has its own section
in the Properties Panel, and each will be discussed in detail in
its own section to follow.
If you need to make room in the Properties Panel in order to
see some of the fields better, you can collapse one or more
areas by clicking the small minus sign next to its name; the box
will then display a small plus sign. Clicking on the plus sign
expands that area again.

Adjusting Text Properties

The Properties Panel allows you to modify various properties of
the currently selected text segment. You can use this area of
the panel to change text itself, choose a font, and select the
height, alignment, and spacing of the letters. You can also alter
the sewing sequence, and determine how trims and lock
stitches will be applied to the segment.
The property fields you see in the text area may be different,
depending on which kind of text frame is selected; for example,
when a Circle frame is selected, this area will show two places
where you can input text, labelled 'Upper' and 'Lower'.
The properties that you will see displayed will be slightly
different depending on which type of text (Normal, Path,
Vertical, Circle or Monogram) is currently selected.

Changing the Text

As well as being able to type directly on the screen (see appro-
priate sections under "Creating Text"), you can also input your
text by typing in into the Text field on the Properties Panel.
