Automatically fill large areas with double-spiral stitching that never crosses itself with Maze Fill.
1Choose the object you want to apply the stitch to or toggle on before you start digitizing. Stitch angles have no effect on this stitch type.
2Click the Maze Fill icon. The result is based on current settings.
3Right-click the Maze Fill icon to access object properties.
4To set a nominal stitch length, adjust the Length field. To automatically shorten stitches to follow tight curves, activate the Variable Run Length option. Because this fill type creates double-spiral stitching, these settings are essentially the same as Run stitch.
3Adjust Spacing to create more or less open stitching.
3Adjust Smoothing for more or less even curves.
3Adjust Direction to reverse stitch direction.
Tip: Maze Fill uses single run stitch for the fill. If you want a thicker stitch type, use Break Apart to turn the object into an outline and then apply a different stitch type.
