Questions
What order should I drop them in?
Ride order. The list is the stitch order; move files with the arrows if the picker shuffled them.
What happens to the gap?
The second file is attached one second after the first ends, so the clock does not jump backwards.
Can I combine more than two?
Yes. Select every piece, line them up, run once.
