Iconizer 5.0
Plug-in for Embird
|
Iconizer
works together with Microsoft® Windows® Explorer, the application which is
present in every installation of Windows 95 and above and with other
Windows programs. The principle of Iconizer plug-in is simple: normally,
when you run Explorer and you are not using the Iconizer plug-in, each
design file is represented by an universal "type" icon.
Registered Iconizer plug-in will show a small icon of the embroidery design
instead. This allows you to browse and sort your designs easily, because
you can see the contents of embroidery files (Fig. 1) while using all the
great features of Microsoft® Windows® Explorer and other Windows programs.

Please Note:
Iconizer plug-in supports only those embroidery formats that are supported
in Embird software.

Use
the "Large Icons" view to obtain the best results, otherwise the
icons may be too small. In Explorer, click on "View -> Large
Icons" command. (Fig. 1). Please note that you can have also larger
icons: Specify the icon size in "Iconizer Settings" dialog box in
Embird Options menu. The default size is 32.
Iconizer
is available in demo version that displays only part of embroidery designs on
icons. The rest of files is displayed as "type" icons until you
purchase and register
your copy of Iconizer. Use the "eXplorer"
menu in Embird to enter the registration number into the Iconizer.
Registration number will turn your demo version of Iconizer into full
version.

and "Edit". You can choose any of them to perform the operation.
When you double click on the icon, design will be open in Embird.
