The Bling toolset provides tools for editing rhinestones individually. The following operations are applicable to bling run, bling fill, and bling manual objects.

To edit a bling-fill object...

  • Select the bling-fill object and click the Bling Edit icon. Selection handles change.

  • Delete or reposition selected rhinestones as desired.
  • Select rhinestones and right-click to replace by means of the popup menu.

  • Use the same popup menu to delete or add rhinestones.

These operations are treated as manual edits. The object’s layout status is automatically changed to Manual. This means that bling count does not change during object transformations.

TIP

By default, Automatic Overlap Removal is selected in order to automatically remove unwanted items from overlapping bling objects. Choose another option if you want to manually edit rhinestone overlaps.

Note

Bling overlaps are determined by the Overlap Tolerance setting. This defines the minimum allowable distance between stones.
