DESIGN EDITING TOOLS
BERNINA and bernette embroidery machines have numerous built-in design tools that allow editing the design directly on the screen to prepare it for embroidering.*
ON-SCREEN EDITING
Duplicate, mirror, combine and rearrange with a simple touch of the screen.
UNDO & REDO / GROUP & UNGROUP
Undo & Redo lets you easily go single steps back or forward while Group & Ungroup lets you edit all at once or individually.
Rotate Designs
Rotate without limits. Rotate designs one degree at a time for precision. Also rotate quickly in 90º increments.
Mirror
Mirror designs from left/right or up/down for more editing possibilites.
Resize Designs
Changing the size of a design, either proportionally or non-proportionally, is easy. Size changes in a range of +/- 20% provide best results. Size changes beyond 20% can be achieved but a test stitch out of the design is recommended.
Alter Stitch Density
Alter the stitch density of designs and lettering to accommodate different types of fabric and varying weights of thread.
Move Design
Arrange designs anywhere in the hoop by using the stylus, your fingertip on the screen or use the external multi-function knobs.
Wordart
Customise lettering by creating vertical, horizontal and curved baselines. Individual letter spacing can also be changed for style or visual balance.
Zoom
See an enlarged or reduced view of the design, plus pan the design to precisely locate a stitch.
Colour Resequence
Group the same colours to consolidate the number of repeated colour changes, reducing the overall number of thread changes.
Change Thread Brands
Select your brand of thread to simplify the embroidery process and try out threads/colours from your thread stash.
ON-SCREEN HELP
The Embroidery Consultant provides help, tips and tricks.
COLOUR WHEEL
Change the hue and saturation of a design on screen, translate the visual colours to thread colours and convert your colours to alternate thread libraries.
