Purpose: Sets the thread color for outline, region inside, text, manual punching pattern and
imported pattern (after the Stitch to Block function has been applied).
Available: When the cursor is in Selection mode with nothing selected, the Line color and
Region color buttons are displayed (if they have not been turned off with the Line
sew or Region sew buttons).
When you start one of the drawing modes or Text Input mode, or select an existing
pattern, the Color button for the corresponding pattern appears.
Operation:
1 Click the Color button.
A Thread Color dialog similar to the one shown below appears.
Clear the View Details check box to view a list of only the thread colors.
The setting applies to all the patterns of the same categories that you will create until you change
it. The color button of each category shows the current color for that category.
If a pattern is selected, the setting also applies to that pattern.
NOTE:
For details on specifying a user thread chart or for information on how machines handle thread
colors, refer to “Edit User Thread Chart” on page 225.
