Multiple Saved Styles for Each Object Type

Post by DRabbit »

For example, selecting the Open Polygon / Polyline icon would allow you the option of choosing from a number of user created line styles. (might be best implemented by having the user 'right click' on the icon) One style might be a 4 point thick red line while another might be a 2 point green line with arrow heads. Ideally, the user would be allowed to name each style but even if they were labeled with software controlled names, this would be very productive for me.

I regularly work with 3 or 4 text sizes in a given document as well as multiple different filled polygons. Taking this thought a step further, it would be nice if these user preferences were stored in an easy to find location so that I could copy them to my home computer or forward them to other users.

Hello Mark,

Please check which version of the Viewer you are using, as there are multiple stiles for each of the annotation tools available in our Viewer.

You are able to create styles, select them (see the smal black triangle in the lower right of each Tool's icon), or create/rename/edit them in the Comments Styles Palette.

Regards,
Stefan
