With the Cross-hair icon (G) you call up a cross-hair cursor which indicates the current needle position.

With the Color block icon (H) you position the needle at the start of the current color.

In an embroidery combination, you can jump from design to design with the Reverse design by design icon (I). If the first design is selected, or only one design is entered in the hoop, this icon is not active.
