Hi
I often use both backstitch AND satin stitch (long stitch) in my patterns but can't see how I can set the correct default number of strand settings.

For backstitch, I want to use one strand, for satin stitch, I often want to use three strands to give a good rich cover of colour.

In the Pattern Properties window - Default number of strands, I can set for EITHER Backstitch OR Satin stitch. Whichever I choose, the information sheet and thread useage calculations will be wrong.

Is there a way to select for both?
(And is there a 'simulated fabric option for display?)

Many thanks
Daisy

I'm sorry, but we don't have separate strand options for back stitches and satin stitches. We also don't have a virtual fabric display, although that would be a great feature for a future version.
