Functional Improvements

Stitch counter freeze: Resolved issues with the stitch counter and cursor freezing in embroidery mode.
Jumpstitches when re-sizing embroidery alphabets: Reduced random jumpstitches when resizing embroidery fonts.
"Fabric too thick" message: The message now accurately indicates when the fabric is too thick for the presser foot.

Extra stitch during initialization: Eliminated an extra stitch after machine startup, threading, or sewing initiation.
BSR improved: Enhanced performance for slow quilting with the BSR function.
Needle threader collision: Resolved potential collisions between the needle threader and the embroidery hoop.
