I can count - 1,2,1,2,1,2 etc. What happen, I think, is that it did not do color change #17, That would make it sewing out the wrong color and all colors after that are wrong also. I did have the correct number of color changes- right there in black and white the changes listed as 1 thru 20 with needles only 1 and 2 alternating. No mistakes. The reason that I think that it has something to do with the Shadow function is that the Blend function also has troubles. If I want the colors to to out correctly with a blend, as in a sky bleeding from orange to blue, I have to do it as 2 separate objects and not use the automatic blend function. So, if Melco did get that right, it is not a big stretch to think that the Shadow function also has similar troubles - especially since it did have trouble. In writing this down and thinking about it and how I CAN check it without actually sewing it - which I won't ever do - I can Move to the next color and see if it changes correctly. I just did check and everything seems OK. So I don't know what happened. But I am getting these jobs frequently enough to want to avoid the problem. I don't like going back and fixing things like that.
