Tools > Sort Colors

The Sort Colors command sorts all of the stitches in the design

based on stitch color. If you selected only a portion of the stitches,

you will be asked whether you want to sort only those stitches in the

selection.

Use to restrict the color sort to the

stitches in the current selection.

When this command is used for a multi-hoop design, a color sort is

be performed on each hoop independently. No section breaks are

removed. Automatic section breaks inserted due to thread color

number or stitch number restrictions are ignored during the sort,

and are recalculated after the sort.

!CAUTION: After you sort the colors in your design, you

should look carefully at the results. This command changes

the design's stitch order, which can cause some design

elements to overstitch other design elements, and thereby

cause portions of your design to be buried.

Tools > Reverse Stitch Order

The Reverse Stitch Order command reverses the stitch order of the

stitches in the selection. The first stitch becomes the last stitch

sewn, the second stitch becomes the second to last stitch sewn,

etc…

!CAUTION: If your selection contains understitching, you

will end up with the understitching sewn on top of the design
