Applying Presets Via the 3D Properties Dialog

You can apply presets to your stitches without having to open the Seam & Stitch Manager. This allows you to select a preset (either custom or Optitex) via the 3D Properties (Stitch) dialog and apply it directly to your stitches.

Note: This feature is available in version 15.6SP3 and later.

To apply presets using the 3D Properties Dialog:

1. While in stitch mode (either during stitching or after turning on Show Stitch mode), open the 3D Properties dialog.
   
   

2. In the Visual Properties area, click Presets.
   
   All customized presets and/or Optitex presets are displayed:
   
   

3. Select a preset.
   
   The preset is automatically applied to the stitch.
   
   For example, in the example below, the Seam_Single_Needle preset was selected. You can see it was applied as an element as follows:
   
   
   
   Starting from version O/17 SP1, once you apply a preset to the stitch, the stitch name appears as the preset name in the Stitches dialog.
   
   Stitch without preset
   
   
   
   Stitch with preset
