Stitch Types

All embroidery objects in EmbroideryStudio contain defining settings or properties. Some, such as size and position, are common to all objects, while others are specific to object type. The most important property of all is stitch type. The software uses object outlines and the associated stitch type to generate stitches. Whenever you reshape, transform or scale an object, stitches are regenerated according to current settings.

Stitch types divide broadly into two categories – outlines and fills. Different stitch types suit different shapes. Some stitch types are suitable for both outlines or fills. Others are dedicated to one or other purpose. A stitch type can be selected together with a digitizing method or applied afterwards. Whenever you create an object from scratch, it takes the currently selected stitch type.
