BuzzEdit
Basics
We know you are anxious to get started using the powerful features
of BuzzEdit
. But before you begin, it is important for you to become
familiar with the BuzzEdit
workspace as it has many unique
features and tools.
In this chapter, you will get an overview of the BuzzEdit
workspace, learn how to select stitches in the various windows, and
learn many of the terms used in the rest of the manual.
After you read Chapter 1, you will want to read Chapter 2:
Manipulating Stitches, where you will learn some of the stitch
manipulations that are available and the commands used to perform
each one. When you have finished reading these first two chapters,
you may want to jump ahead to Chapter 5: How Do I… (beginning
on page 95), which will give you detailed instructions for many
common BuzzEdit
tasks. Or you may want to use the BuzzEdit
Reference (beginning on page 115) to find out more information
about a specific command or tool.

Note: This User’s Guide assumes that you have a basic

already, you may need to consult a basic Windows manual
before proceeding.

Welcome dialog box, which lets you open an existing design or start
