Line Properties Dialog

You can use the Line Properties dialogs to accomplish several editing tasks for line shapes, including the following.

Note Although the Line Properties dialogs are named differently depending on the type of line you selected (e.g., Polyline Properties, Zig Zag Line Properties, Curved Line Properties), the tasks in each dialog are the same.

• Arrows (Arrows Tab) Read more… When you add a line to an image, an arrow is automatically added at its head. You can change the position, size, or color of the arrow if you want. You can also remove all arrows from the line so that it is a simple line. See Setting the Arrows for a Line.
• Color (Appearance Tab) Read more… When you add an object (e.g., shape, line) to an image, you have many options for changing its look and feel. You can change the look of an object by changing its color settings, such as its fill, shading, transparency, or line color and width. See Setting the Color for an Object.
• Condition Tags (Conditions Tab)Read more… You can apply condition tags to objects that have been added to images. You do not need to apply conditions to each and every object in an image, but rather only to those objects that should be included in some outputs but excluded from other outputs. If a particular object should always be included in the image, there is no need to apply a condition tag to it. See Applying Conditions.
• Shadow Effect (Shadow Tab) Read more… You can add a shadow effect to an object in an image or to the image itself. This helps to give your image the appearance of depth. When you create a shadow effect, you have control over where the shadow appears, how much shadow is shown, the color of the shadow, and the transparency of the shadow. See Adding Shadow Effects.
