Filling boxes with no border
Posted: 20 May 2009 11:07
I prefer to produce diagrams without boxes around data as I find it looks less clunky, so in 'Diagram Options/Boxes//Edit Features' I have set Box Shape to .
However, I would like to change the background colour of certain items to indicate flagged conditions that require attention.
The flag mechanism is working fine, but only shows up if I change to one of the other box types, which means having the boxes back. I suppose pedantically, 'no box' means there's nothing to fill, but what I effectively need is just to be able to set the 'box line' value to zero. If I select 'other' and a line size of zero, it just defaults back to the old value.
Any suggestions please ?
Cheers,
Geoff.
