Smart Sizer

Smart Sizer is a tool that is used alongside Amazing Design packs.
When you have installed a design pack in the Gn Scaleable format you will then be able to size you design.
You can make the design larger or smaller and still keep it portioned.
You can also change the height and width of the design.
The difference is that with the GN Scaleable format the stitch count will be able to maintain the excellent density and select thread weight by going to the option menu. This will allow you manually adjust the density or thread and make any adjustments you care to make with the different type of fabrics that you sew on.
Other options you have with the Smart Sizer is that you can flip the design vertically or horizontally; copy, cut, paste; rotate the design, and you can merge in other designs which will allow you to create your own unique design.
After you have finished changing your design to your own creative style, you then simply save the design as you machine format.
The Smart Sizer will also allow you to convert designs to different embroidery machine format. You can go to from a (pcs) to a (hus) or (pes) to a (hus) and so on.
You can interchange between all of the embroidery machine formats that Amazing Designs are compatible with.
