To create a new style, follow the procedures outlined in Chapter 2. As

shown in Figure 90, the dialog box to create a graphics style consists

of 15 pages.

• The Organizer page, which contains a summary of the style and

its hierarchical position, is discussed in Chapter 2.

• The Font, Font Effects, Indents & Spacing, Alignment, Tabs and

Asian typography pages, which set the properties of the text and

are shared with presentation styles, are discussed in detail in

Chapter 3.

• The Dimensioning page is used to set the style of dimension lines

and it is not normally used in presentations. For further details

refer to the

Draw Guide

• The remaining pages (Text, Text animation, Connector, Line, Area,

Shadowing, and Transparency) contain the same options as the

dialogs for manual formatting of the Line, Area, Text and

Connectors; they are discussed in this chapter.

Note

In most of the cases you will not need to configure the

parameters of every page; for example, to create a simple line

style you will probably only use 3 of the 15 pages.
