Markup
The markup screen. This is where the magic happens. Tap cells to mark them off as you stitch, track your progress and never lose another stitch.
Controls at a glance
| Pan and zoom | Two fingers. Drag with two fingers to move around the chart, and pinch to zoom. One finger is only ever for marking, so you cannot scroll the chart and mark cells by accident. |
| Tap a cell | Marks it with the current symbol’s colour. Tap a marked cell to unmark it. |
| Drag across cells | Marks (or unmarks) a whole run in one sweep. |
| Symbol panel | Your symbols, on the right. Tap one to make it the current symbol for marking. See “The symbol panel” below. |
| Symbols button | Brings the panel back when it is hidden. |
| Action chip | On the left edge (bottom of the screen in portrait). Save the project, open the project settings, open the statistics and project info, switch between full-page and grid-only chart view, and zoom to fit. |
| Top chipset | Shows the current symbol and your markup colour, with the pick-from-chart magnifier beside them. The chevron opens the layers panel. See “The layers panel” below. |
The layers panel
Tap the chevron on the top chipset to open it. Everything you see on the canvas is stacked in layers here:
Chart is the scanned pattern itself. Show or hide it, fade it with the opacity slider, or rotate the whole chart 90 degrees at a time.
Markup is your marked cells. Show or hide your marks, toggle the grid lines, preview the pattern as coloured stitches, highlight the cells you have not stitched yet, flash a ring on your last stitch, and lock marking so nothing changes by accident.
Drawing Layers are up to five freehand layers on top: add one with +, pick each layer’s pen and colour, erase single strokes, reorder or delete layers.
The round marker on the left of each row picks the active layer: it decides whether a one-finger touch marks cells (Markup active) or draws (a drawing layer active).
The symbol panel
The panel on the right is your command centre for symbols. Tap a symbol to make it the current one, and every cell you mark uses its colour. Each card shows the symbol’s thread colour and how many stitches are left.
It has three sizes, from a thin strip of swatches to a full-screen list, plus hidden. The sort chips reorder it, and the magnifier on the top chipset works the other way around: tap a cell on the chart and its symbol becomes current.
More about this step
A drag only affects cells that match the first cell you touched. If you start on an unmarked cell the sweep only marks, and if you start on a marked cell it only unmarks, so a wobbly finger cannot flip things both ways.
Marks are saved as you go, and your daily count updates live. Unmarking a stitch you made today takes it off today’s count. Unmarking an older one does not.
Everything from the setup wizard stays reachable: closing the project returns you to the dashboard, and reopening it brings you straight back here, exactly where you left off.
