Getting to Know the Pieces window

The Pieces Window is located below the Icon toolbars. This window displays all the pattern pieces that exist in a particular style. Once you begin working on a pattern, all the pattern pieces appear in this window, along with the name of each piece and the style information.

If you right click while standing on the Pieces window, the following options appear:
