Just got online for a minute; I'm off the the airport for a trip to England -- back late on the 3rd of September. I may write more then, but for right now, when the big hoop is selected, the top of the stitch area (broken line) is at the top of the outside of the hoop, and it appears that a lot of the hoop area isn't available. I understand about the laser being off, but an inch and a half! That doesn't make sense to me unless you can't use the full hoop area to embroider. But if that's the case, why does the hoop exist at all? Have a great week, everyone, Barb =========================================================== The AmayaUsers Mailing List Website: http://www.amayausers.com Discussion Board: http://www.amayausers.com/boards Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://www.amayausers.com/list ===========================================================
