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.
