Chenille module™

---

This module adds features to "Digitizing" module therefore "Digitizing" module is needed to be installed prior to "Chenille" module. With this module you can create designs with chenille stitch type easily. With the "chenille" module you can convert any object filled with any stitch type to chenille stitch type and automatically have a different variation of the embroidery file. In addition you can use the "Chain" and "Loop" special functions on any object and embroider it as chenille. Also, you can design any chenille embroidery design from scratch and send it to your machine in order to be embroidered.

General tools:

• Ability to convert any stitch type to Chenille
• "Loop" and "Chain" special functions are added that allow you to create chenille like objects

Chenille stitch type parameters you can adjust:

• The Density
• The length of stitches
• The loop stitches Offset

• The number of Passes
• The number of Repeats
• You can specify the percentage of stitch penetration point offsetting that the chain stitch will make on every Repeat
• Whether the Chenille will have Chain stitch as Border or not
• The Square end on the end of the Chenille

Font creator module™

---

Font Creator module requires the Digitizing module to be already installed in Wings' modular! With the Font creator module you can create your own satin or zig-zag fonts or load any of the pre-punched fonts that are included in this module. Gain time and effort!

Font creator features:

• Create any font or symbol with satin or zig-zag stitch
• Make fonts using your own digitizing experience and expertise
• Save the fonts in order to use them whenever is needed
• Load any of the font files that the program provides or any of the computers default and use it in your design.
• 56 pre-punched satin stitch fonts are included in the module
• Another very useful option that you have in the Font Creator toolbox is the "Auto digitize" ability. With this option you can automatically digitize a character and add it to the character list. The concept of this option is not to automatically digitize the characters but to help you with the font creation. With this option you can automatically digitize the character you want and simply fine tune the quality of the embroidery by changing or adding some stitch directions (for Satin, Zig Zag). This procedure can decrease pre-digitized font creation time dramatically and the quality of the embroidery designs that you will create by using these fonts.

Designer module™

---

Designer module requires the Digitizing module to be already installed in Wings' modular®! This module allows you to use your favorite design package virtually inside modular. You can easily design an object in CorelDRAW® for example, copy it to the clipboard and then paste it in modular. You can also scan any image you want and then embroider it! It is now easier than ever to embroider any design! You do not have to design it from scratch; only cover the colored areas with stitches! Adds a clever and innovating tool that can auto correct embroidery errors and negligence. Unnecessary trims, forgotten trims, Fix/Lock additions or removals, are no more subjects to take time to correct. Less time, less effort and higher quality are three reasons for adding this module to your Wings' modular.

Convert designs to embroidery

Wings' modular 6 has the ability to convert Vector and Bitmap graphic files to embroidery designs automatically.
