Embroidery software has seen quite a few new options spring up recently in regards to anchor point functionality. These new and convenient features will help you perfects your design down to the finest detail.
Add Anchors
It is now possible to add new anchors to a selected outline segment with the click of a mouse. This applies to both digitized embroidery and artwork segments.
Adding Multiple Anchor Points
Users can now add multiple new anchor points to a segment in sequence. Select a specific node, and choose to insert before or after the selected node. Then, new anchor points may be inserted into the segment, just like creating a line.
Converting Anchor Points
There is a quick way to convert between different types of anchor points. A single click can make a selected smooth point change to a straight point, and straight, cusp, and symmetric points change to smooth.
Average Anchor Points Alignment
You can now choose the alignment of anchor points the same way you do for the segments with the alignment tool. Using this option allows you to align or average the selected anchors, either vertically or horizontally.
Move Anchor Points
It is now possible move selected anchor points a precise distance vertically and horizontally by entering the amount of displacement you need.
Snap to Anchor Points
Users can set the anchor points on one segment to snap to the anchor points of another. This can be very useful, for example, when trying to get linear segments to line up exactly. When you drag the end of one segment to the end of the other, the two terminal points will snap together to make a continuous line.
While some of these features may seem like no big deal, they will save digitizers plenty of time in the long run and make previously tedious tasks, very simple.
