Can you somehow upload your DB numbers into the system so that those are the only ones used for creations? I have a lot but never have the ones suggested.
I don’t know what happened I updated bead tool and is worst now. The zoom is not the same and I need to have the zoom again I have eyes problems and with this update is not zooming enough. This new update sucks.
I've been using Beadtool for years. It allows me to be design my own patterns and change them into different stitch types. It shows how many beads of each colour needed for the pattern. I love it. Couldn't make my beautiful jewellery without it.
Don't purchase BeadTool 4! I emailed support for assistance and was emailed back derogatory emails. Also, after purchasing, the program the company owner deactivated my account so I couldn't use the program and refused to give me a refund. I had to file a complaint and was finally refunded my money. This company and owner are not to be trusted!
Owner Christoper Litts is not very friendly in fact, he cursed me out for no apparent reason. Support for the program is horrible! If you purchase the program, and it doesn't work on your computer, or your PC crashes, he will not refund you nor allow you to download and reinstall.
I love this software for making beading patterns. There is only 1 thing about it that I don't like and that is the colors do not match the real colors, both in TOHO and Miyuki.
Along with limited functionality in the trial version the software can only be installed on 2 computers. This is fine, as it allows for a portable device and possible a more permanent workstation. However, if you need to replace a computer or crashed a computer that needs to have the operating system reinstalled, you are out of luck. Evidently the activation server does not work in real-time and there is no deactivation process. Support will not help and messages are usually pre-canned and off topic. Think carefully before purchasing!
I am trying to use this program (either export to pdf (something in the export to pdf function prevents import into other vector editing programs), and export to svg hangs up. Any help out there?
