To create custom design layouts is not very different to setting up thread colors. The simplest approach is to base a new design on an existing one in order to preserve stitch settings and design scale. You can change colors, fonts and stitch settings as required.

To create a new layout from an old one...

  1. Click the Open icon. The Open Design dialog opens.
