If it does, where do you find the instruction?
Thanks.
Thanks.
This info is found in the File>Print tab.

I bought one because it looked really easy in the demos. I find it difficult and confusing to use. Maybe it is just me, but I am not that crazy about it. It won't do what I want to do, so I won't be buying any more. If you are adept at reading the small print, following instructions, etc. you may like it. I can learn better when shown how to use things. However, I don't care for the sketchbook feature as you have to paste blocks for each project, and I would like to just delete some of the projects I started and don't like. Suggestions anyone?

To delete just a quilt or block in a project go to View Sketchbook and right mouse click on the unwanted item and choose "delete" and answer yes to the dialog box question.

Thank you everyone that suggested Quilt In A Day for the EQ7. Right or wrong, I just ordered it, and managed to save $50.00 to boot by ordering it from Quilt in a Day(BONUS), plus they said they are sending a free gift...HMMMMMMMMM!!! Just wanted to say thankyou for all the feedback and I will keep you posted on my progress once I receive the EQ7.

When I looked on ebay, I found one listed for about $90. Seems awfully cheap compared to what they normally run. Says it's brand new and they have more than one available. Is there something I am missing? What kind of questions do I need to ask seller?
