This is an absolutely fantastic video, you are seriously a life saver, was so confused on how to control the fill param commands and this was so helpful thanks a ton.
Dale, not watched this all the way through yet but just wanted to mention, in your videos you sometimes use the stitch plan and say about having to remember to turn off the design layer to see it - you can set the option for that. when you use the stitch plan just above where it says about setting realistic etc. you have the option to turn off the design layer
Yeah I often do that, then I use that and export as png/pdf to make a preview if I need to show to someone (not that often as I tend to digitise for myself so on screen is good enough)
There are two type of pullcompensation the one is expand that makes the shape bigger in all directions the second one is the pullcompensation and this expands the the stitches so if you have stitchdirection on a rectangle at 45 in the corner you get that it expands slightly but in the center where there are the most stitches it will give more pullcomp
Thanks for this detailed video. In the next one, could you also add a section about underpaths in layered fills and leaving/omitting gaps in such cases? I was wondering if the main criterion is the total stitch count (in large designs it makes sense to put holes in fills, while it's better to leave the bottom layer intact if it's a small design). Also, a section about fonts and resizing them would be awesome.
Hi everyone, can anyone help on this 😊. I have created one design in inkspace for computer embroidery, but the color changes are more than 100 colors, how can we fix that please help me, I need only 10 colors in that design.
Ctrl click a color or select a color object from the objects list. Edit>select>select same>fill color, object>group. Repeat Did this from memory so may not be exact but should get you where you need it.

Thank you for updating your beginner guide
Thanks for spending your time 😀

That's a good tip. A little later on I use the option of putting it beside the design layer.

I'm working on 2 font videos for the lettering tool, one for premade fonts and one for creating fonts
Thank you for the great lesson but how to install inkstitch on window 10
