Introduction
Thank you for choosing CreativeStudio from Statler Stitcher®.
A complete ‘Help’ system has been created to support the Statler Stitcher®
CreativeStudio software meaning the ‘help’ information is accessible in electronic
format as well as printed. The electronic format is sometimes referred to as ‘online’
help but at no time is this help system connected to the Internet, the World Wide
Web or any other network.
The electronic format is a database of information that has been linked into the
CreativeStudio software and is accessible at any time during quilting. The help
system can be accessed by using the ‘Help’ command at the top of each CS screen.
Just click on the word ‘Help’ and another window will appear that presents the
information and helps you look for the topic of interest.
The CreativeStudio help system was written for quilters by a professional quilter
and explains each key feature in a quilting context. The first section covers some
computer skills that quilters may need to review. The second section describes the
main screen. The third section discusses planning a quilt and explains how
CreativeStudio can collect and save all of the planned details together for future
reference. Section four details how to execute the planned quilt using the CS
features. Section five contains Quick Reference cards which can be printed and kept
close to the Statler Stitcher if needed.
The key features of CreativeStudio are presented in the same way they might be
executed (Baste, Blocks, Borders, Backgrounds). Utility features (Restart, Defaults,
etc) are toward the end of the manual. An extensive index was created to help
people search for topics of interest.
Links have been used in the Help system, and are denoted by keywords displayed in
blue, and underlined. If using the electronic format, clicking on one of the links will
take you directly to that place in the electronic format that explains the keyword in
more detail. If using the printed format, a document icon is printed just following the
link. This icon contains a number which is the page number containing the keyword
explanation.
Color has been used to differentiate certain details that apply to different patterns
and processes. It is highly recommended that this manual be printed in color, to
take full advantage of the instruction. Suggestions for enhancements to the software
and the User Manual can be sent to enhancements@statlerstitcher.com
