Auto-sequencing can be used to optimize how a design is sewn.  To use this tool, select an entire design or a group of elements. Right-click the on the selected objects, then right-click on Auto-Sequence and then left-click on Minimize Jumps from the popup menu. The order of the selected elements will be changed if necessary (you can see this in the Project View) to minimize jumps between them. The locations of the entry and exits points may also be moved to minimize jumps.  If you only want to change entry and exit points (and not sew order), select Auto Entry/Exit after right-clicking the selected elements. You can also select Minimize Color Changes to minimize the number of color changes when your design sews.
