The size of the buttonhole is automatically set by placing a

It is sometimes necessary to change buttonhole size to
match certain heavy or specific fabrics and threads.
Make a test buttonhole on an extra piece of the fabric to
check your settings.
The preset width of the buttonhole is suitable for ordinary
buttons.
Apply an interfacing to stretch or fine fabrics.
