Under Value, type the value of the corner radius in a measure (10mm, 5px, 0.5in) or
percentage (0 - 90%).
5. Click OK, and click OK again to close the Formatting dialog.
Using a CSSfile
Of course you could also add this rule to a CSS file; see "Styling templates with CSS files" on
page239. The following rule sets the border-radius of the corners of all paragraphs to 5 pixels:
p { border-radius: 5px; }.
To make this rule apply to one specific paragraph, first give the paragraph an ID (select the
paragraph and type the ID, for example rounded, on the Attributes pane). Then add the ID to
the selector of the CSSrule, for example p#rounded { border-radius: 5px; }.
To make the CSS rule apply to a set of paragraphs with the same class, first give the
paragraphs the same class (for example rounded). Then add that class to the selector of the
CSS rule, for example p.rounded { border-radius: 5px; }.
Colors
Colors make an important contribution to the look and feel of your templates. This topic
explains how to define and apply colors and how to keep them consistent in different output
channels.
Defining colors, spot colors and tints
Color selectors, such as the drop-down list on the toolbar, initially contain a small set of colors.
Add your own colors so that they can be used throughout the templates, in all contexts and in
color selector dialogs as well as with their names in style rules (see "Styling and formatting" on
page238).
Defining colors
To define colors:
1.
Select Edit > Colors on the menu.
2. Add a color. There are two ways to do this:

Click the New button (the green plus).
