Right-click Stitch Effects > Auto Underlay to select an underlay type to apply to branched objects.

BranchingInputA.pngBecause Branching combines objects to form a single branched object, you may be able to apply a single underlay to the entire object. The technique works well with Column A or Column B objects.

To apply automatic underlay to branched objects...

1Select the branched object and right-click Auto Underlay.

Note: If component objects are touching or overlapping, the underlay is first stitched out for the whole branched object followed by the cover stitch.
