Designer SE - Pattern enlargment

Dec 13, 2008 4 Replies

Hi all!



I am a new owner of a Husqvarna Designer SE and I have no software for it yet other than that which comes with the machine.



I have been told that if I wish to enlarge a pattern it can be done from the base software that comes with the machine but so far I am only able to enlarge them by 10-15%



Is there a way to enlarge a pattern more than this with the base software or must I purchase the 4D to get that functionality



Thanks very much, I`m new and trying to learn quickly.

The problem with enlarging/shrinking designs by much more than 10% is that the stitch density of the designs is changed significantly. I can't remember if the Designer SE has a built-in function that allows you to maintain that density when changing the size of designs.

This is one solution:

The 4D professional changes the stich density when enlarging or shrinking but the stitches may not lay as nice when changing the size alot.
