Function

Target

Display Layer

Call up the Display layers dialog box. With the dxf format different lines can be saved on different layers. The Display layers dialog box allows these layers to be deactivated and activated.

Display Pieces

Call up the Show pieces dialog box. If several shapes are present in a dxf file (e.g. with graduations or if a shape consists of several parts), then these are shown by name in the opened Show pieces dialog box with this function. Individual parts can be activated of deactivated using checkboxes. This enables the parts that are not relevant for knitting to be faded out.

Display Info

Display information on the opened dxf file.

Display Lines

Call up the Show lines dialog box. Here, all lines, from which the shapes are put together, are displayed in the form of coordinates. The lines can be selected as desired. Individual lines can be activated of deactivated using checkboxes. This enables the parts that are not relevant for knitting to be faded out.

Display Macros

Call up the Show macros dialog box. Here, the activated settings in the functions Align, Rotate, Mirror, Scale, Halve and Display Layer are managed (save, load, change sequence, use) with the Add to Macros checkbox.
