Column Width
|
This is the overall width of the stitching in the column, Normally not less than 10 (1mm) nor more than 50 for satin stitching
|
|
Stitching Angle
|
When creating especially small columns, or certain types of appliqué such as tackle twill, the standard "satin" stitching look of 1 straight line, and one angle line is not desirable. The angle setting allows you to make a more zig zag appearance. On narrow columns it will increase the stitch length slightly as an angle line is linger than a straight line for a given width. It is a slight variation , but one that make a big difference
Notic the difference in appearance by changing the angle value from 0 to 10

Density
|
Density is measured as the distance between stitches on the same side of an area. density of 0.4 will put stitches closer together than a density of 0.5 resulting on more stitches for the design. Density values normally range from 0.3 to 0.5. It is very rare to exceed that range unless you are doing something special. Puff foam for instances requires a very low density number to cut the foam, it is not uncommon for density to be 0.2 or even lower, while tackle twill stitching will use a density of 1.5 to 2.0.

|
Inset %
|
This is the movement of the stitching line from the drawn center line. Normally the stitching is placed to the left and right of the drawn line. In some cases you may find it desirable to move the line inward or outward. It is much easier to change this setting than to move all the points.

Corner Type
|
Core utilizes 2 corner types of stitching for the Steil stitch, the 2 types are Square and Extended The square type is shown on the left while the extended is on the right
At first glance you might be tempted to use the extended corner all the time, however, it can produce some very small stitching at the point, When stitching on knit garments, especially at narrow column widths the Square corner is a much better choice.
