Pro-Stitcher User Manual
5.6 Design Menu
Area
A quilting
Area
is a portion of the Pro-Stitcher
screen that represents an area on the quilt
(
Figure 5.16
)
. Within this area the quilter can place
their designs, repeat them, stretch them, skew them,
crop them, and so forth, knowing that everything
within the defined
Area
on the Pro-Stitcher screen
will match up with the corresponding area on the
quilt. An
Area
can be created at any point during
the
Design
process, but only after a design is loaded.
If a quilter creates an area with no design loaded, the
area will not be visible until a design is loaded.
Areas
can be created as a simple rectangle by
identifying only two opposing corners
(
2 Corner)
or
by plotting multiple points around the desired area
to create any unique shape
(
Multi-Point)
. The
Area
is fixed in position once it is defined and cannot be
moved. If the quilter must move or adjust the defined
Area
, first clear the
Area
and then recreate it.
To create an
Area
, press the
Design
menu button to
reveal the
Design
sub-menus
(
Figure 5.17
)
. Then
press the
Area
sub-menu button to reveal
the buttons for the
Area
panel
(
Figure 5.18
)
