A quick way to navigate through the stitches on your expanded designs (DST, EXP, PES, JEF, etc) is to do it by travelling from machine command to machine command, whether those commands are trims or color changes.

TIP: if your software has a Stitch List, use it - it'll come in handy for visual confirmation at all times (the Stitch List in EO9 is the last tab on the right edge of the screen).

1. When you load a stitch file, the software should automatically place you in Stitch Edit mode. If you're not in this mode already, enter Stitch Edit mode by clicking on the Edit Stitches icon on the toolbar on the left.

2. Once you're in Stitch Edit mode, click on the Go To button located in the Commands section of the Stitch Editing ribbon.

3. From that menu, choose the function you want to use for navigating through your design, for instance Next Command.
