Fix looks through your pattern and suggests corrections. You choose which ones go in.
When to use Fix
- A part stands beside the toy and has no place on it yet.
- The toy lies on its side when it should stand, or the other way round.
- A round is marked ? because the editor cannot read it.
After an import, Fix opens by itself when it has something to suggest.
Run Fix
Click Fix at the top of the editor. The check can take up to a minute.
Review the suggestions
Each suggestion names its part and what it changes:
| Suggestion | What it changes |
|---|---|
| Position | How the toy stands or lies. |
| Assembly | Where a loose part is sewn on. The suggestion is the assembly line itself. |
| Stitches | A round rewritten so the editor can read it. |
Some suggestions say "Check this choice against your pattern". Fix has guessed something your pattern does not say, such as where an ear goes. Compare it with your own notes.
Apply the ones you want
All suggestions are ticked to start with. Untick the ones you do not want and click Apply.
Then look at the toy. To take the changes back, press Ctrl + Z (⌘ + Z on a Mac): everything Fix applied is one step.
If Fix has nothing to suggest
"No fixes suggested" means Fix found none of the problems above. It does not check that the toy looks like your original. For a shape that looks wrong, see Troubleshooting.
Fix has a daily allowance. When it is used up, the message says when you can run it again.
