![]() I have drawn a closed object (Toolboxes, Digitize, Rectangle). Let’s try making a different shape: a square. Selecting it again and changing the Fill Stitch (Lacework Fill), makes the sphere stand out more! I have deactivated ‘Show Hoop’ with the View Toolbar, and now you can see the entire object: looks like a hat! Pulling the other node too – first a picture before releasing the mouse button…Īnd after: because I had a embroidery hoop selected, the stitches will be made outside the hoop (left and right), because this object is too large for the current hoop. The stitches outside the sphere are flat they no longer belong to the Globe effect, but are creating a flat surface. The picture above shows my action/pulling, before releasing the mouse button.Īnd here you can see what changed after releasing the mouse button: a new shape. I have pulled one yellow node outside the sphere, to create an ellipse. You can change the ‘frame’ of the 3D Globe: the width and even the position. If you look closely, you can see two other shapes a green square and a red cross: respectively start- and end point of the actual embroidery, both with yellow nodes too. ![]() Extra lines are added outside and around the sphere, with two yellow nodes – one on top and one to the right (that is, with my example). T0 get an even more dramatic affect with the 3D Globe icon, select the sphere again and use the ‘Reshape’ tool (Transform Toolbar). Started with 16.624 stitches, now there are 15.415 stitches left. This will not only change the appearance of your objects, but reduces stitches.Ĭhange the upper object back to ‘Candlewicking Fill’ by clicking on the icon and then on the 3D Globe Effect icon and voilà: your spheres are back. Click to use this function, and the overlap is gone.Ĭheck the docker ‘Color Film’ to see a part of the underlying sphere is gone. ![]() To be able to do this anyway, change the sphere on top into a Step Fill immediately ‘Remove Overlaps’ is activated. But this won’t work with the 3D Globe Effect activated on both objects. Not the best of results! Normally, you can ‘Remove Overlaps’, via ‘Edit’, available with the left toolbar ‘Toolboxes’. ![]() It is fun to play with fill stitches and the 3D Globe Effect.īy placing two spheres partly on top of each other, notice that there is an overlap, where stitches will shine through. I have activated ‘Show Artistic View’ again to se e how the embroidery will look.Ĭhoosing a Blackwork Fill, pattern B0009a… These start- and end points could be at another place on your embroidery).Īs long as the icon ‘3D Globe Effect’ is active, you can change Fill stitches, by choosing variations with this Candlewicking Fill, or using the other three Fills with all their variations. Wow, how great is that?! Stitch count has dropped to 10.356.ĭeactivating ‘Show Artistic View’ shows you the start point = center of the hoop with actual embroidery, the start of the embroidery (small circle on the right) and the end point (triangle on the left). With the selection still active, the 3D Globe Effect icon was also active: just clicked on this and the flat circle turned into a sphere. Stitch count with this circle = 14.004 at the moment. Selected the circle and changed the color into a bright green (color change is just for fun). I have placed a Closed Object (left toolbar = Toolboxes, Digitize, Ellipse) on my workspace, and clicked on ‘Candlewicking Fill. With the other icons the option 3D Globe is grayed-out. ![]() This function is activated with a couple of fill stitches: Blackwork Fill, Candlewicking Fill, Lacework Fill and Pattern Fill. This last icon of the Effects Toolbar is something special: many users have bought V8 (or the Upgrade) for this feature: making your flat embroidery look three-dimensional. And sometimes there is a special icon for dramatic effect:Īnd dramatic effect is what you get when using the 3D Globe Effect. It’s fun, discovering all the functions of the Toolbars of the BERNINA Embroidery Software V8. ![]()
