Sequence objects

The embroidery objects in a design form a stitching sequence. Initially, objects are stitched in the order in which they were created. As a general rule, it is important to establish the stitching order so that objects in the foreground are sewn after those in the background. If you combine designs or design elements, you will also want to ensure that like-colors are sewn together.

You can change the position of selected objects by cutting and pasting elsewhere in the sequence. The Sequence docker provides various techniques for sequencing objects or entire color blocks in a design.

Tip: The Sequence docker provides an easy way to view color blocks and individual objects in a design. Use the ‘Switch’ buttons on the Sequence docker toolbar to toggle between color blocks and individual objects. The Design Colors toolbar offers an easy way to selectively view color blocks and embroidery objects. This is useful when re-sequencing. See also Design colors and Viewing methods.
