Apply program splits

	Use Fill Stitch Types > Program Split to create decorative fill stitches where needle penetrations form a tiled pattern. Right-click for settings.
	Use Outline Stitch Types > Program Split to create borders or columns of even width for decorative needle penetration patterns. Right-click for settings.

You can apply Program Split to a wide variety of objects. You can adjust these either before or after applying the effect. Choose from a library of split patterns.

Note: Digitize the stitch angle carefully when creating objects with program splits. If rows are parallel with pattern lines, they will rarely intersect and the pattern may not be visible. A 45° stitch angle is suitable for most patterns.
