Virtual Stitchout is a visual method for checking the stitching path of patterns on the CAD
Virtual Stitchout is a visual method for checking patterns without stitching. All the unsewn patterns on the CAD screen will be included, in order. A small blue dot travels the pattern path, and 'beeps' each time there is a break in the pattern. The speed of the movement can be increased (Press the + key on the keyboard) or decreased (press the - key on the keyboard) at any time.
