  DRAWings X4 Professional 3D Embroidery and Digitizing Software Features

  
  NOTE: DRAWings® 4 comes in one edition: the equivalent of the up to now known as “Professional Edition” of DRAWings software and reads all ".DRAW" files created from any previous version.
  
  All features of the Professional Edition are included in this new DRAWings® 4 version.
  
  
• DRAWings® build-in designer
  DRAWings® 4 has now been evolved to include its own built-in designer with tools that help you draw your ideas into 3D embroidery results in real time, while the software interactively regenerates all embroidery parameters!
  
  All designing tools like shapes, node editing, combining, copy/paste, and much more are now incorporated in DRAWings® to provide you a quick and easy-to-use way of designing while you still have the ability to keep using your favorite graphics software.
  
  
• “Scan To Embroidery” tool
  New scan ability that allows you with only a few clicks to scan images and either convert them directly to embroidery or use them as backdrop to manually create the design on top.
  
  
  
  
  
• New build-in Auto tracer with color adjustments
  DRAWings® 4 automatically recognizes the type of image (bitmap, vector) you are importing from the starting dialog and loads the Auto-tracer for every bitmap. Set the number of colors you want the embroidery design to have so as to still look close to the starting image and you are ready. Any change you make on the Auto-tracer is automatically previewed to help you improve the traced image on the fly.
  
  
  
  
  
• Import Stitch files as it is and edit them with new editing tools
  Import any supported stitch file inside DRAWings 4, as is, and selectively convert parts/objects of it or the entire embroidery design to editable Vector artwork. You can also leave it unchanged and simply add some text or a complete design directly in the new “Create” tab. Give life to your old designs and enhance your current ones. You will never find yourself again stuck with stitch files you cannot edit simply because you don’t have the source stitch file any more.
  
  
  
  
  
• Combine stitch files with vector files inside Create tab
  Now, you have the ability to have two or more stitch files together with your vector designs inside the new “Create” tab of DRAWings 4. You can edit them, decorate them and produce a new embroidery design from the combination of various different designs. And all of these with a few clicks of the mouse.
  
  
  
  
  
• Manually CREATE your designs from scratch directly in the Create tab with backdrop or not with 3 different DRAW tools
  Three fundamental drawing tools (Freehand, Bezier and Outline tool) are now available in the new “Create” tab of DRAWings® which allow you to create designs from scratch or based on an imported backdrop. You can now draw the objects in 3D mode and view how the stitches are applied immediately. Any fine tune or change in the shape can be done directly in the Create tab of DRAWings®. Traditional digitizers can take advantage of this feature and produce exactly the embroidery results they want.
  
  
  
  
  
• Complete designing toolset inside Create tab
  A complete designing toolset is now available in the Create tab of DRAWings® 4 to enable you to create your designs directly inside it. You can use existing shapes like Circles, Pies Trapeziums, Parallelograms, Stars, Polygons and Rectangles together with the existing transformation tools to create exactly the designs you want to embroider.
  
  
  
  
  
• Complete Text toolset inside Create tab that allows you Add text, Add text on path, Edit text and much more.
  You can now add Text directly from within the Create tab of DRAWings 4 and edit it by changing its Font type, Font size and Font style. You can even change its shape and size, place text on a path or on any shape you have created.
  
  
  
  
  
• Complete editing/transformation abilities directly inside the Create tab

• Ability to Intersect, Weld and Trim objects inside Create tab
  Create any shape you can think of inside the Create tab by Welding, Trimming or Intersecting objects with a single click of the mouse. These tools can also help you edit your designs by welding many smaller objects to one larger and remove unnecessary stitches under overlapping objects.
  
  
  
  
  
• New way of managing colors inside Create tab
  You can now set/change colors inside the Create tab of DRAWings 4 and make any color adjustments you want. Define your own colors or use any one from the existing thread color palette.
