GREAT TIP. I never realized the garment outline funktion. I would prefer that for charting devices over the knitleader. My stair steps never match the dakplannig. I like to increase say left and right same time, 6 times every 8 rows and DAK can be a little funny about that. The outline straight line would give me some freedom about that without missing control. And you can knit away in different gauges without changing the dakfile and printing out new. Have to check it out for halfscale too.

I have had DAK for many years, versions 7 and then 8) and I admit that I have never used it to its full potential (never for designing or integrating stitch patterns, for example) but I still find it tremendously useful and have no regrets about investing in it. Before I discovered KIN, DAK really made it easy to knit what I wanted at MY gauge and not to slavishly follow written patterns.
