Note
It is also possible to set an element's background in a style sheet; see "Styling templates
with CSS files" on page 219. When referring to images or fonts from a CSS file, refer to a
path that is relative to the current path, which is css/. For example: #header {
background-image: url('../images/image.jpg'); }.
Border
In any type of template, boxes, tables and table cells, paragraphs and other elements can have
a border.
Elements have a rectangular shape, so their border has four sides. Each side of the border can
have a different layout.
Adding a border
1. Right-click the element and click the respective element on the shortcut menu.
Alternatively, select the element (see "Selecting an element" on page 76) and on the
Format menu click the respective element.
2.
Click the Border tab.
3.
Uncheck the option Same for all sides to be able to style each side of the border
separately.
4. Specify the width of the border (side). This is equivalent to the border-width property
in CSS.
5. Specify the style of the border (side), such as solid, dashed or dotted. This is equivalent to
the border-style property in CSS.
6.
Specify the color of the border (side): click the downward pointing arrow next to Color to
select a color from the list of predefined colors (see "Defining colors, spot colors and tints"
on page 235), or click the colored rectangle to open the Color Picker dialog. In this dialog
you can select a color from the color wheel, set RGB or CMYK color values or enter a
hexadecimal color code. This setting is equivalent to the border-color property in
CSS.
