Notes on programmable fill stitches
When setting the sew type and pattern directions of
a programmable fill stitch, lines will not be sewn if
the sew type and pattern direction settings cause a
stitch to be sewn in the same direction as a line in
the stitch pattern.
Use the Preview function to view exactly how the
stitch pattern will be sewn, and then set the stitch
direction and pattern direction according to the
selected sew type or to the effect that you want to
produce. To get an even better view, make test
samples of different settings.
