The Design Explorer is accessed from the Mode toolbar.
Design Explorer has five main components – toolbars, navigation pane, design display area, details pane, and Design Information docker. The appearance will differ somewhat depending on your operating system.
Design Explorer components are summarized as follows...

Navigation pane |
The navigation pane in the Design Explorer is not an exact duplicate of your File Explorer folder structure. It is selective in that it only contains folders relevant to embroidery design and multi-decoration. Select and add any folder on your PC or network to view supported file types. |

Design display area |
The design display area shows any designs in selected folders corresponding to the filter selected or search criteria entered in the View (Design Explorer) toolbar.

Details pane |
When a design is selected, summary information is displayed in the preview pane. |
|
Design Information docker |
Check design details via this docker. This is always advisable prior to design approval or stitchout. Summary and order information may be provided by the digitizer or sales team. This information can be printed with approval sheets and production worksheets. |
