### 4/5 — 操作感も分かりやすい

*2025-12-27*

大量の糸を管理するためにインストールしました。全体的に使いやすい。でも、DMCのラメ糸(E〇〇～)のシリーズや、グラデーション糸の管理ができないので、その辺りも強化して欲しい。

### 4/5 — 色があるからわかりやすい

*2025-12-05*

糸番号だけでなくて色もあるのでわかりやすいです。糸の色と設定の色が違う時は設定を変えられるのも気に入りました。にしきいとやシャイニーリフレクターなんかのラメ糸の登録もできるようにしてもらえるともっと嬉しいです

### 4/5 — とても良い

*2025-08-31*

とても便利です。
プロジェクトで写真がアップロード出来るようになると最高です😃！
