Checking the stitching with the Stitch Simulator

  1. Click the buttons to view a simulation of the stitching.
    1. Starts the stitching simulation. During stitching simulation, this button changes to , which can be clicked to temporarily stop the simulation.
    2. Stops the simulation and returns to the previous display.
    3. The slider shows the current location in the simulation. In addition, the slider can be moved to change the position in the simulation.

      : Returns to the beginning of stitching and stops the simulation.

      : Advances to the end of stitching and stops the simulation.

    4. Drag the slider to adjust the simulation stitching speed.
    5. Select this check box to automatically scroll the simulation of the pattern when it is too large to be fully displayed.
    6. Click to hide the bottom section of the Stitch Simulator. Click to display it again.
    7. Shows the number of the current stitch/total number of stitches.
      : Reverses the simulation by the indicated number of stitches.
      : Advances the simulation by the indicated number of stitches.
    8. Shows the number of the color being drawn/total number of colors used.
      : Returns to the beginning of stitching for the current or previous thread color.
      : Advances to the beginning of stitching for the next color.
    9. Shows the currently displayed pattern section/total number of hoop sections in the pattern.
      (Appears only for split embroidery patterns.)
      : Returns to the beginning of stitching in the current or previous hoop section.
      : Advances to the beginning of the design in the next hoop section.

      If the Stitch Simulator is not displayed at the bottom of the window, click [Stitch Simulator] on the [View] tab.

      • The zoom tools and pan tool can be used while a simulation is being viewed. If any other command is selected, the simulation stops.
      • If a value is entered at 7, 8 or 9, the simulation is reversed/advanced to the indicated location.
      • If a pattern was selected when the stitching simulation was started, only the selected pattern is drawn in the simulation.
      • The [Auto Scroll] check box is not available in Realistic View.
