Embird Plus digitazers, I need help. Sometimes when I fill an area, I got broken stitches, a bald looking, and I cant get it right. Thanks in advance for any tip.

If you want to send me the design I could have a look and see if I can fix it for you;
or is it happening in more than one design? Sometimes a design does that when it has odd corners, or rounded edges. Try changing the "FILL ANGLE".

Create your stitches and set the design to 3D so you can see it, Select the segment of fill you are having problems with, open the parameters and change the fill angle starting at the top on 90* (then apply) maybe you don't have apply on your version so select OK, see how it looks and repeat the process until your stitches are satisfactory.
In the new versions you can do this repeatedly and see the changes without having to keep closing the paramaters box. It's much better.
Hope this helps

Emad is in my profile. hugs n roses, M

It happens when the design has many areas to fill. I dont have any trouble with Japanese hiraganas I've been uploading at 'design by cuties' as I think they are simple ones. I tried following your instructions, but it is still broken. Gotta get a new software. :( Thanks again, Meganne!

Hi Yoriko, I was investigating your Embird PLUS, as I am confused by your picture, which looks nothing like the Parameters screen on the latest version of Embird.
How old is the version you are using?
I did find an Embird Plus help group but it is no longer operating.
hugs, Meganne

Hi Meganne, it's very old(2003). This is very 'primitive' comparing with another Japanese software I have, which saves only in JHE format and can't be converted in any other in use out there. I know I need a newer one, hopefully next Xmas. Hugs Yoriko

Oh, also, thank you, Meganne.

Perhaps you should investigate upgrading, which is not as costly as you may think. In fact I just checked it out for you... http://www.embird.com/sw/embird/f...
take a look, you might be pleasantly surprised. hugs, Meganne
