You can change the style of individual ties. You can do this for the current layout and frame chain only, or for all layouts and frame chains. By default, all ties are solid.
Prerequisite
-
The lower zone is shown.
-
Properties is selected in the lower zone toolbar.
-
If you are in Engrave mode, Graphic Editing is selected in the Engrave toolbox.
-
You have chosen the appropriate property scope for local properties.
Procedure
Result
The style of the selected ties is changed. If the property scope was set to Locally, this change only takes effect in the current layout and frame chain.
You can set the precise parameters of each of these options project-wide on the Ties page in Engraving Options. For example, you can change the length and width of the stroke in Editorial ties, the diameter of dots and length of dashes, and the sizes of the gaps between dots and dashes.
