Peggy,
 
I don't know if you have tried this, but this is what I would try.
 
In the Project Tree, right click on the design.  
 
Click on Properties
 
Click on Lock/Properties
 
Check Trim if connector greater than
 
Put in the max length of the connector stitch that you want before it trims
 
Click OK
 
 
Hope this helps if you haven't tried it yet.

Hi everybody !
 
 
Well here goes nothin'. I am brand new to this business . I have purchased
some Amaya machines.  I was trained in July but then had to take some time
off in August.  I have been sewing up designs just to practice. I don't have
any customers yet.  Thank goodness.  I would be going balistic.  I haven't
got all the bugs out yet.
 
I love the machines so far.  I have been able to sew 30,000 stitch designs
without a thread break.  Dakota Designs come out beautifully and I have been
able to size them, add fonts, etc. with DSpro+.  
 
I have also been purchasing designs from other companies to round out my
catalog.  That's where I have run into a little problem.  I have bought from
Stitichize and Embroidery Library.  When I download the designs into my DS
program the designs have thread trails in them.  In the tree to the right
there are no trim commands.  There are color changes. I talked to Trevor at
Sitichitize and he said no one had brought this to his attention before but
thought that maybe when he transferred his digitizing from his program over
to the Melco program the trim  commands were being dropped.  He was going to
look into it but I haven't heard back from him and it has been a couple of
weeks.  Someone else told me that's the way it is and he just cleans up the
designs himself.
 
I don't want to have to clean them up myself if I am missing something here
and  everyone else downloads these designs and they are just fine.  I've
been reading the list for awhile and really enjoy everyones ideas and humor.
I guess we have to stick together.  
 
Would anyone care to comment on this problem and also any other good design
sources?  Look forward to your ideas.
