Stixiva — September garden

Why the app

The whole studio, no tab to hunt for.

The app opens the online studio in its own window: your usual tools, laid out like real desktop software.

Its own window

Stixiva launches like desktop software, with no address bar and no tabs getting lost.

Your files at home

The “Open” button reads your .embx files, and your projects save straight to your computer.

Your older charts

“Import WXS” brings in your .wxs files. .oxs files open from the studio in the browser.

Always up to date

A message shows up as soon as a new version of the app is available.

The same account as on the website: your cloud projects follow you from one screen to the next.

Installation

Three steps, and you’re set.

It only takes a few minutes. Nothing to configure: the studio is waiting when you open it.

From photo to pattern, without leaving your desktop.

FAQ

Before you start

Does the app work without internet?

Not yet: it opens the online studio in its own window, so you need a connection. Your .embx files, though, stay on your computer.

Does it cost anything?

No. Stixiva is free during the public beta, in the app as in the browser.

I have a Mac, a tablet or a phone

The studio works in the browser, with nothing to install. On a phone or tablet, install it from the website: an icon on your home screen and the studio full screen.

How do I uninstall Stixiva?

In Windows Settings, open Apps, then Installed apps: choose Stixiva, then Uninstall.

What about my .oxs files?

They open from the studio in the browser. In the app, “Open” reads .embx files and “Import WXS” reads .wxs files.

Needles ready
