How do I change the thread at the bottom (Design Palette) to my own thread brand?
You can change the threads at the bottom (Design Palette) to your own thread brand either for a single design or save to your Normal template. When saving to your normal template, this thread brand will always open as the New Blank Design.
How to change the threads in the Design Palette to my own threads for a single design:
Open your design
Open the Threads Docker (on right side of screen)
Assign your desired brand of thread if not already showing (see below if you do not know how to do this)
Click “Match All” icon on the far right side of Threads Docker
Your thread brand will now be assigned to the Design Palette threads at the bottom of the screen
How to change the threads in the Design Palette to my own threads so that a New Blank Design always opens with my threads assigned at the bottom
