Guide Styles
The style of a guide is defined by a set of properties that appear in the format shown below:
<HLine Y1=“33%” Pattern=“C0C0” Color=“FFFFFFFF”/>
HLine: Draws a horizontal line and requires a Y-value, which is measured from the top
of the screen. The Y-value can be given either in percent (%) or in absolute pixels (px).
Vline: Draws a vertical line and requires an X-value, which is measured from the left of
the screen. The X-value can be given either in percent (%) or in absolute pixels (px).
Pattern: The Pattern value is made up of four hex values and determines the visual
appearance of the line.
Examples for such patterns include:
>>FFFF draws a solid line ________________
>>EEEE a dashed line -------------------
>>ECEC dash-dot line -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.
>>ECCC dash- dot-dot -..-..-..-..-..-..-..
>>AAAA dotted line ………………
Color: The Color value is composed of four groups of two hex values each. The
first three groups define the RGB colors; the last group defines the transparency.
For instance, the hex value for pure red would be #FF000000, and pure lime green
would be #00FF0000
Rectangle: Draws a rectangle, which can be empty or filled, and supports the same
pattern and color settings described above.
It requires two X- and two Y-values to define the extent <Rectangle
Pattern=“F0F0” X1=“10%”
Y1=“10%” X2=“90%” Y2=“90%”>.
FillMode: Applies to rectangles only and defines whether the inside or the outside of
the rectangle should be filled with a color. Leave this value out to have just a bounding
rectangle without any fill.
>>FillMode = (“None”|Inside|”Outside)
FillColor: Applies to rectangles only and defines the color of the filled area specified by
FillMode.
