Even if you’ve been using Hatch Embroidery for years, there’s always something new to learn! Here’s a tip to help with alignment and creating straight lines or precise angles when digitizing.

Tip for Straight Lines and Angles:

When adding or moving a node while manually digitizing:

• Hold down the CTRL key:
  • This helps align the node and ensures your lines are straight or at exact angles.
  • The angle adjusts in 15-degree intervals, allowing for precise alignment at 15°, 30°, 45°, and so on.

Try It Out:

Next time you're manually digitizing, give this trick a shot—it’s a game-changer for precision!
