Elastic Embossed Fill is a decorative effect where the pattern follows the stitch angle and may be scaled to fit the width of the object. You can apply it to a variety of object and stitch types. It works best with satin stitching. It is intended for use with objects with turning stitches or varying column width. To apply the effect to new objects, select a digitizing tool and click the toggle on the Context toolbar. The effect will be applied to all newly digitized filled objects. It doesn’t apply to outline objects. Embossed fills turns with the shape unlike regular embossed fills...
Tip: If you are using satin stitch with Elastic Embossed Fill, turn off Auto Split. See also Satin stitch.
