Parallel Fill, the most commonly used digitizing
tool, can be used to create almost any closed
shape.
Reference points and control points in
EasyDesign
Once you have selected a digitizing method, you
digitize shapes in the same way by marking
'reference points' along an outline. In general, you
mark a reference point where:
a curved outline changes curvature
the outline has corners
the outline changes from a straight line to curve.
Parallel
Fill tool
You always use the left mouse button to mark a
corner point, and the right mouse button to mark
a curve point. Two points marked with the left
mouse button are always connected with a straight
line. Three points marked with the right mouse
button are always connected with a curved line.
The reference points you mark when digitizing a
shape become the 'control
embroidery 'object'. Control points appear on
object outlines and are used to edit or 'transform'
objects. Such actions may include reshaping,
scaling (resizing), spacing letters, changing entry
and exit points. See Modifying Designs
Try this! Most individual control points can be
added, deleted, moved or changed to either corner
or curve points. Some control points have a
specific function and cannot be deleted – e.g. entry
points. See Reshaping objects
