The digitizing software can perform many activities that you can now understand:
•Open condensed designs DSG |
The application can read condensed design to view every detail of each object, and the objects sequence. |
•Object editing |
Users can modify each object individually, that is, change any geometric element and any property, including the main fill style. Users can modify an object as a block or a block containing a group of objects (move, copy, delete, resize, reshape, reorder, etc). Users can also convert the object types. |
•Create designs |
Users can create new designs starting from scratch using any of the digitizing methods provided by the application. Objects can be created on-the-fly, from pre-defined shapes, based on images, automatically created from images and produced by other object creation tools (lettering, etc). |
•Merge designs |
Users can add objects to create a new design. Users can also insert text objects from the lettering system to customize existing designs. |
•Save condensed designs DSG |
The application can write condensed design, which is the most convenient format to store designs for a later use as it keeps all the features assigned during the creation process. |
•Export expanded designs |
Condensed designs can be exported as expanded designs to any available machine file format (stitch generation automatically applies). |
•Import expanded designs |
The application can read design files prepared for machines in different file formats. Once read, users can view these designs on-screen (in the software workspace) in detail as well as the stitches sequence. |
•Stitch editing |
Users can modify each individual stitch, each individual command and block of stitches (move, copy, delete, rotate, enlarge, etc). Users can merge expanded designs. |
•Advanced stitch editing |
Users can convert part of the expanded designs (a group of stitches) into objects, that is, expanded to condensed conversion. The application can recognize patterns from a sequence of stitches and replace those stitches by an object (geometry with properties). |
•Merge designs |
Users can add objects to the expanded design to create a new design. Users can insert text objects from the lettering system to customize existing designs. |
•Export expanded designs |
Expanded designs or designs with both expanded data (stitches and commands) and condensed data (objects) can be exported as expanded designs to any available machine file format (stitch generation will apply if required). |
This list is just a summary of some activities. This application is an advanced software product for the creation of designs for several apparel decoration specialties. Not only you will be able to export embroidery designs for embroidery machines, then there are many other available activities you can perform with this amazing application.
