General Information
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Cleanup Expert module™
 
With this clever and innovating tool, you can auto correct embroidery errors and negligence, that happen during punching a design. Features like unnecessary trims, forgotten trims, Fix/Lock additions or removals, are no more subjects to take time to correct. With simple tick boxes you can modify the whole design or the selected parts.
 
 
Cleanup Expert modifications can be done in four steps:

1. Fixing and locking - options:

This step of Clean-up expert tool is separated in two parts.
The first part has to do with the fixing stitches placed at the beginning of the objects and the second part has to do with the locking stitches placed at the end of the objects.
Fixing stitches
Fix if there is a thread trim before an object: By enabling this parameter you can add fixing stitches, if there is a thread trim function at the beginning of the objects.
Fix if previous connection is long: By enabling this parameter you can add fixing stitches, if there is a long stitch connecting the current object with the previous one.
Remove fixing stitches on short connections: By enabling this parameter you can delete the unnecessary fixing stitches on the short-distanced objects
Fix all objects: By enabling this parameter you can add fixing stitches to the whole design or the selected objects.
Locking stitches
Lock if there is a thread trim following: By enabling this parameter you can add locking stitches, if there is a thread trim function at the end of the objects.
Lock if next connection is long: By enabling this parameter you can add locking stitches, if there is a long stitch connecting the current object with the next one.
Remove locking stitches on short connections: By enabling this parameter you can delete the unnecessary locking stitches on the short-distanced objects.
Lock all objects: By enabling this parameter you can add locking stitches to the whole design or the selected objects.
   

2. Special Functions - options:

This step has four options and refers on adding or removing thread trims on the design or the selected objects.
Add trims between long connections: With this parameter you can force the program to add trims between long distance objects
Remove trims on short connections: With this parameter you can remove the thread trims between short distance objects.
Remove unnecessary trims: With this parameter you can delete the thread trims between objects where the trim is not needed. This error occurs when you rearrange the sequence of the objects.
Add trims between all objects: By enabling this parameter you can add thread trims to the objects of the whole design or the selected objects
   

3. Start - End Points - options:

This step of Clean-up expert tool is separated in two parts.
The first part changes the position of the entry points of the objects and the second part changes the position of the exit points of the objects.
Start points:
Change the start of the object, after trims, to "Auto": By enabling this parameter you can remove the user defined start points of an object, when thread trim function exists at the beginning of the object.
Change all object start-points to "Auto": By enabling this parameter you can remove the user inserted start points of the objects and let the program determine the starts of each object.
End points:
Change the end of the object, before trims, to "Auto": By enabling this parameter you can remove the user defined exit points of an object, when thread trim function exists at the end of the object.
Move end points to "Closest connection": By enabling this parameter you can remove the user inserted exit points of the objects and let the program determine the exit of each object accordingly to the position of the next one.
 

4. Rule Parameters - options:

Short connection is below a defined number: On this numeric input you determine the value in mm, under which a stitch length will be considered as short.
Process selected object: If this parameter is enabled, the rules that have been specified in the previous steps, will take effect only on the selected objects.
Preview list of operations: In this area, you can preview the modifications that will be applied by clean-up expert on the design.
