4.7.2 Set Origin<br />

Every time the software is started, CS will ask for an origin point. The origin is an<br />

anchor for the system, and all movement is defined relative to that anchor.<br />

Most graphics software uses one of three origin points: Machine origin (some<br />

repeatable, reliable place like an upper corner), absolute origin (a fixed point, like the<br />

center) and relative origin (which changes by the block or project). PS uses a relative<br />

origin. CS uses the machine origin. If the origin could not be reset, the CS projects<br />

could not be shared, re-used or restarted.<br />

CS has the ability to set a specific origin point (in this case, the upper right corner)<br />

which enables the projects to be repeatable, across machines. This means that<br />

projects can be created for a whole quilt and the project can be sold / shared to<br />

others, just like a single pattern is sold / shared in PS.<br />

Tip: When setting the origin, not only should you choose a reliable,<br />

repeatable location but you should handle the stitcher the same way<br />

also. This means if you are exerting pressure on the machine to get<br />

it into the corner, you should always exert that same pressure.
