Color blocks & stop sequence

A color block corresponds to a color change in the design. It may be comprised of one or more same-color objects. These may form a single group – e.g. ‘ropes’ – or more – e.g. ‘ropes and birds’. Each color block, or ‘element’, can be given a descriptive name for easy identification. These can be included on the production worksheet. Together this information is known as the ‘stop sequence’. The operator generally uses it to ensure that correct colors are used in the correct sequence during production.
