How Views Look 2-7
Striped Border 2
A border made of pairs of short, slanted lines edged by a thin black rectangle
is used around views known as routing slips (see “Routing Slips” on
page 7-12). It’s no accident that this border looks something like the border
traditionally printed on airmail envelopes, because routing slips are analogous
to postal envelopes. Figure 2-5 shows a routing slip border.

The paired short lines in a striped border slant 45 degrees to the right.
Wavy Border 2
A view with a heavy black wavy border is called an alert box. It contains an
important message that a user must acknowledge. There are two types of
alert boxes; they are described in “Notification Alerts” on page 2-17 and
“Confirmation Alerts” on page 2-18. Figure 2-6 shows the wavy border of
an alert box.
