Use Effects > Automatic Corners to toggle mitre or cap corners in line objects with sharp turns. Can be turned on/off object-by-object. |
The quality of corners is important in borders and appliqué, and satin column sewing in general. Sharp corners may cause stitch bunching which can create hard spots in the embroidery and may damage fabric or needle. Use Automatic Corners to reduce stitches and the risk of bunched, distorted embroidery in sharp corners.
Click Automatic Corners with or without objects selected.
With no objects selected, corners are automatically generated for all new objects. The following approaches can apply to both appliqué and satin lines.
