Transform objects

Often you will want to scale a design for use in different contexts. For instance, a design originally made to fit a pocket may be adapted to fit a cap. Hatch Embroidery provides techniques for transforming design objects just like a graphics program ... with one difference. When you scale, rotate, skew, or flip an embroidery object, stitches are regenerated.

Note: The scalability and stitching quality of a design ultimately depend on its original source. Only ‘all-in-one’ design files such as EMB, ART, or JAN, contain the complete set of design information required for 100% perfect scaling and transformation. If you scale a stitch design by more than 10%, changes to stitch density will affect design quality.
