32 Chapter 2—Schematic Editing
The following table summarizes the options available in this dialog.
Sheet Borders and Title Blocks
LogicWorks provides a number of features to assist in creating the borders
and title blocks reqruired for a finished schematic diagram.
Creating a Sheet Border
Two methods are available for displaying or printing a border on the draw-
ing:
The default border mechanism displays and/or prints a border with
background grid lines and reference letters and digits at the edges. The
border resizes automatically to match the current drawing size. This
grid can be turned on and off using the options in the Design
Preferences command.
To get more control over the appearance of the border, you can create a
graphic of the desired size in any Windows application that will export
Windows Metafile Format (WMF) data on the clipboard. This image
can then be pasted onto the sheet and set to be a background object,
using the procedure outlined below. This border will then be a fixed
size and will not resize automatically with printer setup and drawing
size changes. Any changes will have to be made manually to the
original graphic which will then have to be re-pasted into the drawing.
Rule Between Lines Turning this switch on causes a line to be drawn after
each row of characters.
Draw Frame Turning this switch on causes a frame to be drawn
around the text item on the schematic.
Font Specs Clicking this button displays the standard Font dialog.
Any changes made in font style affect only the selected
item, but they also become the default for future free
text blocks.
