You have complete control over scaling and reshaping sequin-run objects. You can also manually fine-tune sequin spacings as well as remove or add individual sequins. You can even edit individual fixing stitches.
Note
Performing manual edits to sequin-run objects automatically deselects all options. If you reset to Exact, Contract to fit, or Expand to fit, all manual edits are lost and sequin drops recalculated.
To edit a sequin run...
- Scale sequin-run objects by clicking and dragging selection handles, or by adjusting general properties.
- If the object is created with the Sequin Run Auto tool, the sequin drops are automatically recalculated.
- If the object is created with the Sequin Run Manual tool, the original number of sequin drops is preserved.
- Reshape sequin run lines with the Reshape tool. Add reshape nodes by left- or right-clicking the outline.
- Fine-tune individual sequin spacings with the Sequin Edit tool – click-and-drag a diamond control point. Hold down Shift or Ctrl keys to select a range or multiple control points.
- Delete selected sequins by pressing Delete.
- Add sequins by holding down the Alt key and clicking the run. If you are in multi-sequin mode, select options, including stack sequins, from the popup menu.
- To replace a sequin in multi-sequin mode, click a diamond control point and select an alternative from the Manual Sequin droplist.
- In multi-sequin mode, right-click a diamond control point while modifying a particular sequin. Options include: removing the sequin, replacing it, adding another sequin on top or beneath.
