are sewn at the beginning of

6.1.2 Sewing return stitches at the beginning of the embroidery
Enable the setting for return stitches when the beginning stitches of a design is unstable.
Some designs are already set so return stitches are sewn.
6.1.3 Changing length of upper thread after trimming
If the end of the upper thread is visible on the front of the embroidery in places where sewing
started, set this to [Middle] or [Short].
If the thread does not link correctly where embroidery is started, and embroidery cannot be carried
out properly, set this to [Long].
When metallic type threads such as gold or silver are used, setting this to [Long] can help stabilize
the start of embroidery.
