Density Tuning

DRK has a density tuning control that lets you adjust the stitch count of your file while keeping it the same size.  As the program adjusts the stitches it will also keep the pattern fills intact.

 

By moving the density tuning control slide + or - 25% you can easily adjust the density.

 

After reducing a design to fit your hoop, DRK can alter the density according to the new size of the design.

Another use for the density tuning is to increase the coverage that a design gives. For instance, using puffy foam under an area of satin stitches in a design that wasn’t originally intended for it can now be accomplished by increasing the satin fill density for that color. Or if you are embroidering a towel, and want better coverage to keep the loops in the terry cloth from popping through, simply increase the Density Tuning slider.
