Hi When I go to the design centre and manipulate a picture I get a message :- please change region sewing direction. and when I try to save it in layout and editing I get the message:-please change the region position or sewing direction can any one help TIA Richard
I had the same problem.
I found that the image I scanned had a lot of detail and it was unable to fill with colour, after re-editing it went through. The help memu does not explain this. Message like your kept coming up.

Hi Richard - believe it or not, PED is trying to help - they have a check in the software that looks to see if too many of the areas/pieces of your design is stitching in the same direction, which will cause problems with the outline(s) not matching up, usually in the areas perpendicular to the majority stitch direction.
What supposed to be happening is, when you click the message to make it go away, look to see what's selected when the message box goes away. It should be highlighting one/the area that the software believes should be changed - and what they want you to change is the stitch direction in order to reduce the pull on the fabric created when you stitch it out.
Hope this helps a little - Beowulf
Richard - If you mentioned it, I missed it - what version of PED are you using?? It may be helpful to look at the design in Preview (not realistic preview) mode, and evaluate the stitch directions that way - try modifying them to see if that helps.
