"Cloud" border affect for Circle annotation

[DanielG]

Hello,

It is possible to specify a "cloud" border for Circle annotations. However, when I try to create a Circle annoations using JavaScript, it seems to ignore the "cloud" settings.

Here is what I'm using:
var annot = this.addAnnot({
page: 0,
borderEffectIntensity: 1,
borderEffectStyle: "C",
dash: [],
fillColor: ["T"],
opacity: 1, popupOpen: false,
rect: [167.19715639810426,483,316.4,567],
strokeColor: ["RGB",1,0,0],
style: "S",
type: "Circle",
width: 1});

According to the documentation, a borderEffectStyle of "C" means it should have a "cloud" border. But the border is regular.

Hi, Deniel.

Please try to use next workaround:

Code: Select all

var annot = this.addAnnot({
page: 0,
dash: [],
fillColor: ["T"],
opacity: 1, popupOpen: false,
rect: [167.19715639810426,483,316.4,567],
strokeColor: ["RGB",1,0,0],
style: "S",
type: "Circle",
width: 1});

annot.borderEffectStyle = "C";
annot.borderEffectIntensity = 1;

We will fix this bug in the next build. RT#2126: JavaScript: some annot creation problems.

Thanks for your report.

Best
Regards.
