Hi I am new to pc stitch and I was wondering if anyone can help me with a question about color amount. I know that when you import a picture you can pick how many colors you will allow on your picture so if I chose say 100 and then I ok the import when I get to the pattern page is there anyway to see how many colors it actually chose other than counting the individual symbols? I know I can pull up the symbols chart and there are 10 per line and the ones in use are highlighted, but I was hoping for something simpler so I can go in real quick and check and if it's to many I can just import at a smaller #.

Drangonlair, Thank you I see what you mean there are a lot that are only 1 to 3 stitches so I will go in and change those to something close by and eliminate a few of the 172 colors it says I need for the picture I want to stitch. Just would be nice if they had the total # of colors that are to be used on the floss usage chart and not just how many stitches that you need of each color. Still a very good program. :)

Try using the floss usage chart. That is a list and even without an exact count, you can get a feel for how many colors you are using as well as how many are used much at all (from the stitch count0.

There is no such thing as a stupid question
