Satin parameters
for existing punching objects: |
| |
 |
| |
With satin stitch type you can add a punching
object of satin stitches. In this case, a smooth curve connects the
nodes that you are adding. The most important thing in using satin
is that you have to add the node points in pairs. The program automatically
adds the
direction of stitches which connect a pair of nodes. The direction
of the stitches can be edited independently of the node placements. |
| |
The parameters that you can change in
this type of punching are: |
| |
- The density
- The type of the underlays
- If there would be fix and lock stitches at the start/end of
the objects.
- The percentages of the compensation
- If corners should be made where needed.
- The Variable pitch

Density: |
| |
In this parameter you can specify the
density of the Satin stitches that you are adding. |
| |
|
|
Underlays: |
| |
In this parameter you can select the underlay
you want to use. To select or change the underlay you have to click
on this field and select one of the following types: |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
Fix & Lock stitches: |
| |
With this parameter you can specify whether
the program will lock the stitches at the start or end of the selected
objects. The lock stitches are small stitches that keep the thread
from unraveling off the fabric. If you want to change this option
you can select one of the available options: |
| |
- None: In this case there will be no lock stitches
at the start or end of the selected objects.
- Fix: In this case the lock stitches will be
placed at the beginning of the selected objects.
- Lock: In this case these stitches will be
placed at the end of the selected objects.
- Fix & Lock: In this case these stitches
will be placed at both the beginning and the end of the selected
objects.

|
|
Compensation: |
 |
| |
With this parameter you can choose
the percentage of the width of the satin stitch based on the width
of the outline. |
| |
|
|
Corners: |
| |
In this logical parameter you can activate
or disable the corners on the current object. The
corners are needed in case that there is steep change of the direction
of the satin and there are curve break nodes on the outlines. The
corners that would be made depends on the shape of the outlines |
| |
|
|
Variable pitch: |
| |
The program will balance the density sensitivity
when a object narrows in size according to the percentage you have
set in this field. |
