Sequencing Outline
Segments
In Outline Mode, you can alter the sequence
of outline segments in your designs. When
modifying outline segments and doing
significant design editing in Xpressive, you
should know how to avoid possibly losing
your stitch edits. For more information on
editing outline segments, see "Editing
Segments".
Inserting segments earlier
in the segment sequence
You can add segments earlier in your
design's segment sequence and change the
order segments are sewn. Insert—Before
mode is ideal if you missed a segment, or if
you want to add another segment.
To delete a segment in Insert mode,
press Ctrl+E on your keyboard and
choose Delete from the shortcut menu.
To insert segments before the insertion
point:
1 Select the segment after the insertion
point.
2 Press Ctrl+E on your keyboard and
choose Insert—Before from the shortcut
menu.
You know Insert mode is on when the
type of mode is check-marked on the
shortcut menu.
The selected segment and all the
segments after it are grayed out.
