Design Information
 
With this option you can view and add information relating to the current design.
 
The "Design Information" dialogue has four sections:
 

General:
On the "General" section of the Design Information dialogue you can view the path and the file name of the current design.  
Also the following data are listed:
  • size
 

• number of stitches

  • number of color changes
  • number of thread trims
   
  You have the option to add information of: Date, Fabric, Yarn and Density.
  You can also see if the current design has "Borer" or "Sequins" but this information cannot be changed as this depends on the design itself.
   

Summary:
You can enter information in the "Customer" and "Designer" fields, in order to keep notes on the design for your archive. These fields can also be used as filters in search option of Browser.
 
In the "Keywords" field you can add words that describe the current design. These keywords can be used as a filter in search option of Browser: if you are dealing with hundreds of designs it can be a vital function for quickly searching your database. Many people find it easier to write down a fixed list of options or keywords to allow multiple users to enter data in the same style into a shared design database.
 
In the "Note" field you can add any other information relating to the design: for example instructions relating to production. This field in one of the Print items of the Print option.
 

Yarn:
The "Yarn" section of the "Design Info..." dialogue contains all the information regarding the yarns you need to complete your current design.
Yarn Length per color in meters; the table shows:
 
  • the needle number for each color you have chosen
  • the length of yarn and the number of stitches for that needle.

Under this table you can see the total number of colors, as well as the length of the yarn and length of the bobbin that you need, in order to produce the current design.

The length of the top yarn and bobbin thread depends on two factors:
  • the Bobbin tension
  • the Fabric thickness
Both factors can be changed using the track bars located at the bottom of the dialogue box which will automatically alter the required yarn. This information can be copied to the clipboard and pasted into any standard spreadsheet or word processing package.
 

Stitches:
This function shows an analysis of the stitch make-up in your design:
 

Stitches per maximum stitch length: 
This shows the number of stitches in your design up to a fixed length of stitches.

Stitches per length (in mm): 
This shows the number of stitches in your design by category of stitch-length.

Histogram: 
This function displays a graph of stitches, according to stitch length; this gives you a visual impression of the information above

Exact stitches: 
This function opens another dialogue box, allowing you to calculate the exact number of stitches, depending on the type of machine you intend to use; you can use the default data contained or enter the specific settings of the particular machine you intend to use; the settings of any machine can be recorded separately in the "Machine time" dialogue box (see below)

Machine time: 
This function opens another dialogue box to allow you to record the settings of particular machines individually, to keep for future reference; by pressing the "machine time" button you can calculate the exact time your design will take to run on the selected machine.
