Memo:
• To remove the last point that was entered,
click the right mouse button. Each
successive right-click removes points, one
by one, in the opposite order that they
were entered. Once all points are deleted,
the Tool Box buttons are available again,
however, the application remains in Split
stitch mode.
• An enclosure is valid only if it contains
stitch data. If it contains no stitch data, an
error message appears, and the enclosure
is erased, but the application remains in
Split stitch mode.
• Sections enclosed several times by lines
of an intricate figure alternate between
being selected and deselected. Therefore,
in a figure like a pentagram for instance,
only the points are selected, and the
center is deselected as it has been
enclosed twice.

appears in the order selected for the
original pattern.
