What is the "Floor Edges" option that is on the 2nd screen when you are importing an image (making a .ptn file)? This is the same screen where you can invert the image as you are making the pattern.

I'm uploading a CW file so you can see the difference.

Basically, "FLOORED EDGES" means that it takes the outside edge of the picture and pegs it to the floor, whereas if you uncheck the option, it leaves the edge to float wherever it's color dictates.

Try different photos, sometimes it doesn't seem to make a difference.

Oh, the "carve" on the left is floored, the "carve" on the right is unfloored.
