Click on the "Regular" button on the tooltab STITCH EDITING to open the drop-down menu. You can also open the context menu, "Mirror/Rotation" group.

Select the option of mirror (horizontal, vertical) or rotation (90º, 180º or 270º).

When a block of stitches is selected, the rectangular envelope is automatically activated. The grips to use on the available functions (four corners and the sides mid points) become visible.

Functions include: Move, Scale and Rotate.

You can press and hold the "Shift" key while dragging the grips to keep the center of the shapes in the same position

This way of scaling just enlarge or reduces each stitch length according to the re-size values. As there is no density compensation when the block change the size, the stitch density will vary and leave empty gaps when the block becomes larger or pile up too many stitches when the block becomes smaller.

If density compensation is required, use the corresponding functions of Stitch Block Advanced Editing.

Place the mouse cursor on the top middle grip of the block (the selection rectangle).

Press the and hold mouse left button, then drag to rotate.

The block rotates while the mouse cursor moves. The pivot of the rotation is the center of the block.

Note: If you prefer to modify the pivot position, place the mouse on it, move the pivot point by pressing the mouse left button.

Release the mouse left button when the expected angle is reached.

You can now:

•Move the block to a different position.

•Scale the rotated block by moving the grip.

•Rotate the block again from the top middle grip.

Press the Enter key to confirm the result.

If any grip on the corner of the rectangle that envelopes the block is moved, the envelop will be deformed (not a rectangle any more) and the position of the stitches of the block will change accordingly.

The grips that are on the middle point of the envelope sides can also be moved, so the irregular envelope will adopt more different shapes. One click with the mouse right button allows to move the middle point creating lines from that point to the adjacent corner. A second click allows to move the middle point creating arcs from that point to the adjacent corner.
