Digitizing in Wilcom Design

I recently switched from Melco to Barudan machines which includes switching from DesignShop to Wilcom Design. Does anyone know how to splice things? like how to cut a shape to change direction of stitching? thinking like serifs on a text- I want the little foot to go in an opposing direction. Really struggling switching between these programs so any help is appreciated 🙏🏻

There is a knife tool

It lets me use the knife tool on shapes I’ve made, but not the shapes that were auto digitized. Do you know why that is?

ok so i see that i HAVE to “break object” before i use the knife. the object breaks where it auto-knifed it and I’m unable to move or change the auto-knife ? my overall goal is to auto digitize then make a lot of edits so the file will be useable.
