I'm working with DS Chancery lettering ( a built-in font) and I get jumps and trims in the worst places - like 2 trims in the middle of ONE letter!  This is awful!

Also, how do I get a nearest point connection?  This is a minor thing, but the letter split into pieces is ridiculous.

Thanks,

Thanks so much for your reply.

I have Deco Studio 1.5e - it doesn't have any options under "Set Stitch Sequence" like you describe.  The only choices listed are "start at right", "start at left" and "start at center" with 2 choices below that last option.

As for spacing, I had moved the letters as close together as looked appealing.

Before I moved the letters, I had chosen the "Break Apart" option, and each letter was broken apart and had trims and jumps within each letter.  The name I was stitching had 15 letters in all and the back is visible, so it wasn't a good thing at all.

Thanks again for trying to help.

Thanks so much for that reminder.  I'm a newbie (obviously) and I forgot about the reshape tool on letters.
