Use Satin Fill when creating narrow shapes of varying width. Change the stitch density in satin fills at any stage.
Where a shape is narrow, stitches need to be less dense because too many needle penetrations can damage the fabric. The larger the spacing, the lower the density.
Tip: Use Raised Satin Fill to create raised embroidery designs consisting of multiple layers of satin stitching.
Select Satin Fill from the Stitch toolbar and digitize a closed shape.
Double-click or right-click a satin fill object to adjust settings. The Object Properties > Fill Stitch > Satin dialog opens.
Optionally, select the Manual option. The spacing field is activated.
To increase stitch density, enter a smaller value.
For more open stitching, enter a larger value.
To apply automatic spacing, select the Automatic, checkbox.
Auto spacing automatically adjusts the stitch spacing wherever a column changes width.
