Using Color Sort
Color Sort
is a tool that helps you reduce the number of
thread color changes in a design. Sometimes, your monogram
design may end up having many more color changes than is
necessary, for example, if you were to use the same multi-color
decor several times. By applying Color Sort, you can potentially
prevent many unnecessary thread changes.
The Color Sort tool intelligently “looks” at a design to see if any
colors are repeated. It then looks to see if any of those repeated
There are times that a color is used more than once in a design
by necessity; for example, this may occur when colors overlap.
