Features - Fonts and Bridges (drawing mode)

Some of the features below are NEW to PCQ Designer V4.0, but many are also improved versions of features contained in V3.0. We have noted this to assist existing users in identifying what might be helpful to them in particular:

  • Help is a mouse or keyclick away! Use F1 for a popup hotkey menu, F2 to get a list of decimal to fraction conversions (to help you mark a quilt) or click on the "?" symbol for interactive help.
  • NEW - Cut and paste capabilities with the light table. Capture and image to the clipboard and user Ctrl-V (Windows paste hotkey) to paste it as a light table image in PCQ Designer. You can then trace over it with Bridges to create a new pattern.
  • IMPROVED - Bridge Mode needs less clicks to accomplish a task such as tracing a pattern for digitizing or drawing a connection between two existing patterns.
  • IMPROVED - Pop-up Menu with common tasks in Bridge Mode is activated by simply Right Clicking with your mouse.
