EDITING DENSITY AND UNDERLAY
The pre-set density of the Complex Fill Step-Satin stitch is 5.0. Also, the stitch
block areas are created without underlay. Underlay stitching is important in that
it stabilizes the fabric and helps to ‘lift’ the design. The following procedure will
demonstrate how to change design density and how to add underlay stitching.
1. To change stitch density, go to Main Menu and select Edit: Edit Outlines.
2. Click left mouse on stitch block to be edited.
3. Go to Horizontal toolbar and select the Properties icon.
4. From the Parameters list, click on Density.
5. Change density from 5.0 to 4.0.
6. Click on Zig-Zag Underlay, then click on Enable Zig-Zag Underlay: Yes;
click OK.
7. Continue Steps 2-6 for the remaining stitch areas of the design.
8. Click Cancel (the red ‘X’) to exit the editing functions.
