Use the Parallel Fill tools to digitize large and
complex shapes generally with fixed rather than
turning stitch angles. Most shapes can be digitized
with these tools. See also Creating motif fills.
To create Parallel Fill objects
1 Click a Parallel Fill icon.
2 Digitize the boundary of the shape, by marking
reference points around the outline of the shape.
 Click to enter corner points.
 Right-click to enter curve points.
Try this! Follow the prompts in the status bar to help
you digitize. If you make a mistake, press Backspace
to delete the last reference point, then continue
digitizing.
3 Close the shape.
 To close the shape with the same type of reference
point as the last you digitized – i.e. corner or curve –
simply press Enter.
 To close the shape using a different type of reference
point, mark the last on top of the first and press
Enter.
Note Boundaries must not overlap.
4 Press Enter.
Note To adjust stitch angles in Parallel Fill objects, see
Adjusting stitch angles.

stitch type with circles and ovals.
