Click Hoop > Auto Hoop to prompt the system to select a suitable hoop automatically. |
The simplest way to hoop a design is to prompt the system to select a hoop for you. Auto Hoop finds the smallest hoop which can accommodate the entire design. Auto Hoop only selects hoops from the My Hoops list thus only ever suggesting a hoop you have pre-selected as available for use.
1Open your design and click the Auto Hoop icon or access the command from Design > Auto Hoop menu. From the My Hoops list of available hoops, EmbroideryStudio chooses the smallest hoop that can accommodate the current design.
2If EmbroideryStudio cannot find a suitable hoop, it prompts you to automatically generate a custom hoop or add more to My Hoops.
3Click Create custom hoop automatically... if you want EmbroideryStudio to generate a hoop. It will create a circular or round rectangular hoop to suit design dimensions and will name it accordingly – e.g. ‘Round Rectangle 158 x 129 mm’.
3Click Add more hoops... if you want to configure or modify the My Hoops list according to your available hoops.
3The current hoop name is displayed in the Prompt bar.
3Select View > Zoom > Zoom to Hoop or press Alt+0 to view the entire hoop in the design window.
3Turn on the Hoop Template display via the Options dialog or View menu. The template may be used to help position your design within the hoop.
3You can include the hoop template in the production worksheet. This allows you to cut out the printed design and align it within the hoop. Use the template markings to align it to physical hoop template.
3The selected hoop is saved with the design in native EMB file format. When the machine reads the machine file, the stitching area is limited by the selected hoop type.
