   fabric colour, which can then be saved and used as required. Also
   the default palette can be set to your choice.

   charts, which can be altered as required.

 - The current palette colour along with its description is given on
   the status bar. Also given is the information about the colour

   remembering which colour was used from the palette.

 - The colours in the palette and key can be sorted into various
   orders.

 - The fabric and grid colour can be altered, also the back stitch thickness
   on screen can be changed. The number of squares between the darker grid
   lines can be altered.

 - The Show option gives information about the design including stitch
   count and design area for definable fabric counts, along with an
   approximate thread usage, length given in inches or centimetres.

 - The size of a design is unlimited, even a design of 2000 x 2000 can
   be produced. There is the grid reference that locates the position
   of the mouse on the grid. Please note that when working on a large
   design, the speed of the program may be affected by the amount of
   memory available.

 - The design and palette can be displayed in various modes, including 
   colour blocks; black & white symbols; colour symbols or colour
   blocks with black & white symbols.

 - The design grid can be turned off or on to improve the view. The

   reflected before placing. The optional user definable outline shape
   allows intricate areas to be copied or moved.

 - Flood fill enables areas to be filled quickly, it recognises both
   cross stitch and back stitch.

 - The edit area option will allow changes to occur only in a desired
   area. So a colour can be changed in one area but will remain
   untouched in the rest of the design.

 - Lines, squares, rectangles, diamonds, circles, ellipses and arcs or
   filled shapes can be easily generated.

 - The program will import TIFF (not LZW compression), BMP & PCX
   files, this gives access to other systems. So a photograph could be
   scanned using a scanning package, and then converted into a cross
   stitch design containing full stitches by Easy Cross.

   the colour number and description, or the ability to use an
   imported file as a background.

   Any unused colours can be removed from the palette.

   aperture ready to design on. There is also the ability to define
   your own templates. The measurements can be set in inches or

   own motif library. Also the motifs can be used to generate square,
   rectangular, diamond, circular & elliptical borders.

 - A design can be increased or reduced in size whilst editing. Also
   areas of the design can be scaled whilst copying and moving.

 - An undo facility gives the ability to undo upto 100 of the last
   options used.

   symbols or colour with black & white symbols; with optional centre
   arrows.

   print margins can be set to improve print layout.

   which will help when placing areas. The rulers can be displayed in terms
