Editing Plus tools:
   
  Transform selected objects by creating copy or not:
  You can duplicate any object or the entire design and make any transformations you want.
   
  Move selected object with mouse or with specific number input:
  You can move any selected object with the mouse or by entering specific values with accuracy of millimeters. Useful tool for keeping specific distances between objects.
   
  Rotate selected objects:
  You can rotate selected objects clockwise or anti-clockwise by simply specifying the number of degrees!
   
  Scale selected objects, proportional or not
  With the scaling functionality that is included you can change the size of the selected object(s) or all the current design.
More specifically, you can scale the selected object(s) as a percentage of the current size by increasing or decreasing it. Also, you can scale the selected object(s) by specifying the size.
The above scaling abilities can be applied proportionally. Proportional scaling option gives you the opportunity to change the size of the selected object(s) by keeping the same analog between the horizontal and the vertical size of them. Therefore when the “Proportional scaling” parameter is on, and one of the dimensions of the selected objects is changed, automatically the other dimension will be changed with the same percentage.
   
  Mirror the selected objects Horizontal or Vertical:
  You can mirror any object by using the mouse or by specifying the axis you want to be based the mirroring.
   
  Move multiple stitches by specifying the first and the last one:
  You can move multiple stitches by specifying the first and the last stitch. The stitches inside those to points can be moved proportional or separately in different directions.
   
  Reset of density counter:
  With this tool you can change the number of stitches contained in the selected object(s). If you haven't selected anything, then the change will be applied to the whole design.
   
  Convert Step to Satin:
  With this tool , you can convert a step object to satin. It is an auto conversion tool that can help you change parts of existing designs from step to satin.
   
  Edit Step patterns:
  Using this option, you can change a step pattern or convert a satin object to step. This option changes the step or the satin of the selected objects, or the entire design if no objects are selected.
The parameters you have to specify in this option are:
 
  • The type of the step that you want to use.
  • The length of the step.
  • Which part will be calculated.
   
  Align the selected objects horizontally:
  You can align the selected objects horizontally in the following positions:
  The object(s) will be aligned based on their left side.
  The object(s) will be aligned based on their horizontal center.
  The object(s) will be aligned based on their right side.
     
  Align the selected object vertical:
  You can align the selected objects vertically in the following positions:
  The object(s) will be aligned based on their topside.
  The object(s) will be aligned based on their vertical center.
  The object(s) will be aligned based on their bottomside.
     
Reverse Stitches of the selected Stitch data objects:
  With this tool you can reverse the way that the design will be embroidered.
   
Smooth the Stitch data objects. Corrects density problems or stitches that are out of the shape.
  With this tool you can make automatic corrections on the selected objects or the whole design.
This tool erases nodes that are not needed. The way that the filter will be applied on the selected objects dependents on the value of "Tolerance" that you can specify.
   
Split the Stitch data objects by specifying lines:
  By clicking on a point and then to another, the split objects tool, splits all the stitches that are passing under the line specified by the two points.
   
  Create copy of the selected objects by reference line:
  You can create a copy of the design by specifying a reference line. This tool is useful when you want to copy a design and at the same time placed in another position of the design area rotated, enlarged or shrunk.
   
R Repeat the last made modification:
  With this option you can repeat the last change you have made in the current design.
   
  Specify if the copies of the objects will be placed at the end or after the original:
  With this tool active the program transfers you instantly at the end of the design. There you can create or place a new object(s) or place a copy of an existing one.
   
Active designs modifications:
 
his is a supportive tool where you can view all the designs that are currently open in the program and some extra functionality:
Print the selected designs one by one or like catalogue.
Save the selected design in the hard disk by changing their location or their format.
Write the selected designs in machine disk. Format command is available in case it is needed.
Close all the selected designs at once.
3D preview of the selected objects.
