Setting the Thread Color and Stitch
All patterns can be assigned at least one color. Patterns with an outline and a region inside can be
assigned two different thread colors. Characters in a text pattern can be assigned individual thread col-
ors.
All patterns can be assigned at least one stitch type. Patterns with an outline and a region inside can be
assigned two different stitch types.
Patterns with an outline and a region inside are: Circle, Fan Shape, Arc & String, Rectangle, Closed Bro-
ken Line, and Closed Curve. For these patterns, it is possible to switch the outline and the regions on and
off.
Patterns with only an outline are: Arc, Open Broken Line, and Open Curve. For these patterns, it is still
possible to switch the outline on and off.
Patterns with only a region are: Text, manual punch patterns and converted imported patterns (to which
the Stitch to block function has been applied). For those three types of patterns, it is not possible to
switch the region inside on and off.
Manual punch patterns: You can set a color to all three manual punch pattern types (block, running and
feed), but you can only set a stitch sew type to the block patterns.
Imported patterns converted with the Stitch to Block function: You can modify globally the sewing
attributes of the blocks of the same color.
