Impress Guide

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.
