2019 is an exciting year for us at Wilcom. It kicks off with us celebrating our 40th anniversary building world-leading embroidery design solutions, and continues with the release of e4.2 – the latest version of our flagship EmbroideryStudio application.
The theme for e4.2 is speed and performance, plus productivity and usability improvements designed to save you time while digitizing.
So, what’s new in EmbroideryStudio e4.2?
General improvements
64-bit support
e4.2 now supports 64-bit operating system, delivering significant speed and performance improvements. Resource-intensive tasks happen in seconds, dramatically improving your productivity and design output.
Wilcom Home Screen
Enjoy instant access to video tutorials, product hints and tips, community forums posts plus your recent design files from the new Home screen.
Close all windows
Quickly close all active design windows with the new File > Close All.
Improved thumbnail display
Design thumbnails now reflect the display settings at the time of saving, meaning if bitmaps are shown, they will also display in the thumbnail.
Lettering improvements
Font preview & recently used font list
Easily preview your letter with new solid font previews. The preview size can be adjusted, and the preview pane can be enlarged.
Furthermore, access recently used fonts in the font properties window, and set the number of fonts you want to your Recently Used font list.
Improved font selection
Quickly select the font you’re looking for by typing the font name in the font property font list.
Thread & Color improvements
Quick preview of objects by color
Preview design elements using a particular thread by holding down the mouse on a particular thread palette color. When held down, all other colors are hidden showing only the selected color on-screen.
Quick edit of thread palette colors
Quickly edit thread palette colors by double-clicking the thread palette color icon and adjust the color.
Auto-scroll in the Color-Object List
Selecting an object will now automatically scroll to the object in Color-Object List. This gives you instant access to re-sequence the object, group, ungroup, or easily adjust object properties.
Design & digitizing Improvements
New design templates
Enjoy a collection of new editable design templates that you can use to build quick logos for your clients.
Single Mirror Merge toolbar
The Mirror Merge toolbar and settings bar are now merged into a single Mirror Merge toolbar.
Graphical Digitizing improvement
Graphical Digitizing tools now remember the last stitch type used when using a particular tool. This improvement will dramatically improve the efficiency of using the Graphical Digitizing Tools.
…plus a whole lot more!
The US and UK Wilcom teams will be previewing e4.2 at the upcoming ISS Long Beach and Printwear and Promotion LIVE! shows, with the official release being available for ES users by the end of January.
And the great new is… e4.2 is FREE to all e4 and e4.1 users.
