Probably more work than necessary, but when I have been getting the broken corners on a convert to satin, I have been joining the corners and converting the entire length to a custom satin column. This does not result in the double stitch at the abutted corner and lets the column be continuous, not needing a reverse rails with the joining. I will say that I have occasionally had trouble finding the other ends of the rails after joining one end. Works also with circles or any shape that is broken up with a convert line to satin.
Awesome video! You can really explain everything well, im a embroidery beginner and this cleared up lots of things for me. However, I design very complicated graffiti in inkskscape. There are many rounded letters whose outlines are combined into a single-object word (like the letter E in this video but no gaps between all letters), also with many spikes for a cool visual effect. Would you please have any tips on how to solve and manage sudden shap spikes (when i want to keep satin) and how to organise many rounded satin columns together? I can send you an example of my vector design if you're interested 🙂 thank you for teaching us and have a great day ❤🔥
I was trying to do the captain America shield and I’m having trouble to get the rings to meet each other when stitched , despite the preview showing it will be ok
One question on setting preferences: I like to work in inches. Is there a way to set a default template to inches for both box size and grid? I have been able to get the work area to default to inches for a new template, but the grid continues to default to pixels. After changing in the individual file, the grid stays in inches, but I cannot get the default to start me in inches.
Try, after you have your document settings the way you'd like, save as template and check make default template. Not at the computer so I can't really do s step by step. Lemme know if that helps
hello and good day to you all. Thanks for another video, Mr Linux. I have been working a little with Embrilliance, Inkscape, and working around in Hatch by wilco. I was wondering do you have or have you thought about doing a video that kind of explains the same buttons, in each, or should I say the almost same operations in relation to the programs you have. I you could have a dual software running and usage of both with operations relations, I think that would be so awesome. Just wanted to ask if that was possible because I;m still in the air about what fits for me. Thank you so kindly.

Question, I have a design that's an applique with a satin stitch and I enlarged it. It looks ok, but is it possible to make my satin stitch more dense somehow?
as long as you continue to work with the svg image and not the embroidery image editing is easy. just use params and make the 'stitches between rows' a bit less (smaller number). If you didn't save it as SVG first then it makes everything a bit more difficult.
Pro tip: in edit - preferences - keyboard - set "Stack up" to PageUp button and "Stack down" to PageDown button. This will change the order after clicking on an object. There are more useful shotcuts for inkstitch on their website 👍🏻
I hate being interrupted by work too lol. Thanks for the videos!
Great vid! Thanks especially for the pull comp explanation

That is a good option that I do sometimes as well

This weekend is booked up with sweetie to-dos but send it to me and I'll make a video early next week with it.

Do you have a video on how to digitize a multicolored picture to an embroidery design?
I'm not sure what you mean. I have several videos that are multicolor

I don't use either of those programs so I really don't have the tit for tat impression to do it justice. Great idea though.

Hello. Do you happen to know how to make stitches go in a certain order? I have created a bunch of stitches, but it stitches out in a strange order….
Bring up your objects list. Inkstitch stitches from bottom up in that list. You can reorder that list to stitch in the order you want.
Oh thanks I'll give it a shot
