indicator with a cross at the center is displayed.

To resize the current selection, drag the edge of

the selection indicator outwards (to enlarge the

does not

currently change the number of stitches in

the resized selection. Thus resizing a

design or part of a design by more than

about 10 or 20 percent can result in poor

sewing. When resizing, the mouse cursor

will change to an exclamation point if the

percent resize exceeds 20 percent.

By default, the center of resizing is at the center

of the selection. To change the center of the

resizing, drag the cross to the desired location

before you resize your selection.

You can switch between the selection’s

center and the custom center by pressing

the Custom Center button located on the

main toolbar.

Because you can change the center before you

resize, you have complete control the resizing

and positioning of your design.

Resize

The stitches located at the center of the resize

do not move; the rest of the selection grows or

shrinks away from this point. This behavior is

useful if you are trying to enlarge an area of the

design slightly to eliminate gaps between design

segments.
