For all pattern placement, the point of origin is the ‘basepoint.” Think of the CAD as a graph with the point of origin as the center with coordinates (0,0)

Point of Origin Defined
The point of origin is used to synchronize the current stitcher location with all the patterns in all the quilt groups. This is done automatically upon start-up and, if needed, it can be manually initiated using the set origin command.
For all pattern placement, the point of origin is the basepoint. Think of the CAD as a graph with the point of origin as the center with coordinates (0,0). All pattern placement is defined from that point. The point of origin can be anywhere you select but it should be easily repeatable each time you turn on your machine. Generally, quilters pull the machine all the way to the front or push it all the way to the back and move it as far as it will go in either direction to use one of the four corners as the point of origin.
Set Point of Origin on Startup
After turning on your Statler and opening CreativeStudio, you are always prompted to set the point of origin.
Set Origin After Initial Startup
To set the point of origin anytime after the initial startup of CreativeStudio, use the dropdown Stitch Commands menu and select Set Origin. Or use the Set Origin icon on the menu strip.
