DRAWings 8 Features

Technique selection

Ability to select from the start up wizard which techniques you will use to create the design you want. You can select from the following techniques: Cut, Embroidery, Crystals, Stencil and Paint. For example, if you want to create a design that will be cut at your cutter, you have to enable only the Cut technique. The software will filter the available tools and show you only those that can be used for your design.

Vector fill Pen type

With the Vector fill tool you can create beautiful designs by drawing over large Satin on Step filled shapes. Every curve you are drawing it is automatically converted to stitch penetration points in the shape below. Apply Array fill to a shape and fill it with a Vector fill object to create unique and complex effects on your Satin/Step filled designs. It also can be used for splitting wide Satin bars and avoid having too long satin stitches.

Paint your designs

You can create designs that can be painted from your Cutter by switching the cutter blade with a brush or pen. There are different paint fill types that you can use and create unique designs. The Paint types that are available are the following: ZigZag, Fill, Row-fill Fill types, and Line, ZigZag Pen/outline types. Each type has its own parameters, which you can adjust according your preferences.

Stippling fill type

Create beautiful designs with stippling that you can use either for embroidery or quilting. It is very easy to use and adjust. Quilting was never easier.

More Applique options

You can now set the holding stitches to E-stitch or Zig-Zag and select the way the fabric will be trimmed from the Fabric trim option. A new feature to remove overlapped Applique is added. The Fabric trim option that you will select, will affect the way the applique design will be embroidered. The applique fabric can also be cut with your Cutter.

Cutter parameters

On each fill or pen type that is related to the cutter, cutter parameters are added. You can now adjust the following:

• Cutter presets
• Cutter speed
• Cutter pressure
