Resize your selection by dragging the circular 
boundary of your selection. The percentage 
enlargement is displayed on the bottom status 
bar. In the example shown, the design moves 
away from the resize center; that is, the bird's 
beak (Figure 3-11). If you exceed the maximum 
recommended resize percentage of twenty 
percent, the cursor will include an exclamation 
point to alert you of a potential problem and the 
Resize dialog will open. This allows you to select 
the “Use BuzzSize

™

 to Retain Stitch Density” option. The options you 

select on this dialog will be remembered and they will be used in the 
future to determine if the Resize dialog should be displayed. 

You can also resize your selection using specific values for the resize 
percentage and the center of the resizing (choose 

). 

Using the 

 menu command also allows you to change 

the resize settings. For more help on this command, click on the Resize 
Selection dialogs 

 button.

BuzzSize

™

 allows you to change the density of a design or a complete 

color break. Density adjustment may be necessary to compensate for 
certain fabrics or to correct a design stitching fault. For example, you 
might want to reduce the density of an area when you are planning on 
stitching the design onto light weight fabrics. The density can be 
increased or decreased by up to 50%.

You can adjust density by using the

tool that is located on 

the Main toolbar or by using the 

 

command. 

In addition to resizing your selection, you can stretch or shrink your 
design along an arbitrary direction. In 

BuzzSize

™

, 

a stretched selection 

contains the same number of stitches as the original.
