Alter the stitch settings

Increase or reduce the width of a stitch with the stitch width icons plus and minus (A).

Alter the density of the decorative stitch by touching the stitch length icons plus and minus (B).

You can elongate the pattern with the plus and minus buttons (C). Elongating the pattern does not change the stitch density.

Thread tension can be changed when using specialty techniques.

The stitch settings will not be saved permanently. The next time the stitch is open, the stitch will automatically be restored to its original setting.

If you want to save your altered stitch permanently, simply go into the Context menu (D) and touch the Save parameter icon. The settings will be saved even when you have turned off the machine.

If you have altered a stitch and want to save it with those settings to the Personal menu, you can go to the Context menu (D) and choose Copy to personal stitches. That stitch will then be saved in the personal menu.
