EMBROIDERY DATA PROCESSING APPARATUS, SEWING MACHINE, EMBROIDERY DATA PROCESSING PROGRAM, AND STORAGE MEDIUM STORING EMBROIDERY DATA PROCESSING PROGRAM

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an embroidery data processing apparatus, a sewing machine, an embroidery data processing program, and a storage medium storing the embroidery data processing program in which unit patterns are arranged in an arrangement that a user desires. SOLUTION: The sewing machine 1 includes the steps of: setting positions of at least three reference points to be used to determine arrangement positions of the unit patterns; setting two reference lines being straight lines that intersect each other and each pass through at least two reference points of the plurality of reference points (S3); setting a reference plane arranged in a matrix based on a distance between reference points through which a reference line passes, the reference plane being a plane on which the unit patterns are to be arranged (S4); determining the arrangement positions of the unit patterns based on the reference plane (S7 and S8); selecting a unit pattern arranged in the determined arrangement position; and arranging the selected unit patterns in the determined arrangement positions to create embroidery data (S11).
