The Modify Tab in PREMIER+™ 2 Embroidery Extra

What can you do with the tools in the Modify tab? These tools lend extra control for selecting and isolating areas in embroideries for more effective editing.


When you are working with multiple embroidery designs and select the Modify tab, only the selected embroidery is active, so it's easy to isolate areas within a design for more specialized editing.

Dropdown Tools in the Insert area enable you to add a new thread color Insert Color , a Stop Command Stop Command for pausing your embroidery without changing colors, and Insert Stitches ( Insert Stitches 1 or Insert Stitches 2 ) to fill in gaps in embroideries.
