Right-click Stitch Effects > Auto Underlay to adjust Center Run and Edge Run underlay settings. |
Center Run places a row of stitches along the center of a column. It is used to stabilize narrow columns – e.g. 2-3 mm wide. Edge Run places stitches around the edge of an object. Use Edge Run together with the zigzag or tatami underlays when digitizing large shapes.
3Enter a stitch length for each underlay type. The samples below show the difference between fixed and variable run lengths.
3Adjust stitch length to ensure underlay stitches follow curves and are not visible in the final embroidery.
