Apply closest join

Use Edit Objects > Apply Closest Join to join selected objects at the closest point. Re-apply closest join after editing.

When you are digitizing closed objects, the Closest Join method automatically calculates the closest join between them, saving you having to think about entry and exit points. The Apply Closest Join feature allows you to (re-)apply closest join to selected objects after editing. The image below shows a) joins as digitized, b) joins after resequencing, c) joins after reapplying closest join. The Apply Closest Join command is only enabled when two or more embroidery objects are selected. The command is also available from the Edit menu or by pressing J.

Tip: Hatch Embroidery also allows you to manually change entry and exit points of individual objects. See also Reshape objects.
