Object details
JANOME Embroidery Software stores three sets of
object details
– default, current and existing.
Note Some
object details
can be modified
on-screen – for example, you can change the size
details by scaling the object with the selection
handles. Other details, such as stitch spacing or
length, are modified via the Object Details dialog.
Default object details
Default object details are controlled by fabric
settings. These become the starting settings used
when creating a new design based on that fabric.
If you want to change defaults, you can create a
custom fabric to suit particular needs. You can also
modify, rename or delete any custom fabrics you
create. See
Working with fabrics
for details.
Some settings, such as the default motif, are
controlled by the design template. If you save
changes to a new template, however, in most
instances, fabric settings override template values.
See
Working with design templates
for details.
Current object details
Current object details are those settings used to
create new objects. Unless you change these
settings, they remain the same as the fabric or
template
defaults
. You generally change them to
save time when digitizing. For example, you may
preset the Satin Fill stitch setting to use a specific
density for all new Satin objects you create.
Note The change affects new objects in the
design, not the fabric or template defaults. To
apply changes to all new designs based on the
current fabric, you need to change the default –
not the current – details. See also
Working with
fabrics
.
Details of existing objects
Details of existing objects are the settings stored
with each object in the design. You can make the
details of a selected object into new current details
or new defaults. You can also apply current details
to existing objects.
Setting current object details
When you change current object details, the
settings automatically apply to any new objects
created in the current design. You can also apply
current details to existing objects. Before
starting, you can adjust current object details to
new settings. You can only change the settings of
objects not controlled by
fabric settings
. See also
Working with fabrics
.
Note Settings of selected objects can override
current fabric settings. See
Changing details of
selected objects
for details.

Changing details of selected objects
You can change the details of a selected object or
objects. If you select more than one object, the
Object Details dialog will only display tabs that
include relevant settings for all selected objects.
For example, if you select a Parallel Fill object and
a Border object, neither Parallel Fill nor Border
tabs will display as these settings do not apply to
both objects. If selected objects have different
