There is only ONE thing I miss from my topaz 30 ... when the presser foot was up, you didn't have to drop it to start sewing, it would drop automatically. I so miss that! I sewed last night and most of today, and every single time I got beeped at to lower the presser foot LOL ... that will take some getting used to.
When you on the display page for sewing do you have the "presser foot button" with a needle? That is the pivot function which should do what you want.
Check your manual for "pivot" and it will explain that feature. I'm not sure if you can toggle it to "ON" in the preferences page. Have you gone through those yet?
I believe the "pivot" is connected when the foot pedal is used instead of the start/stop button on the machine front.
Good luck!
