CG INFINITY: CHAPTER TWO

4. Soft Edge blends the edges of an object with the background. This option is

useful if anti-aliasing does not create a smooth enough edge for some objects.

5. Line Caps defines how the ends of lines are drawn; you can choose between

Round, Square or Flat. (Depending on the size of your object, you may not be

able to see any obvious change.)

6. Line Joints defines how lines meet; you can choose Round, Bevel, or Miter

joining. (Depending on the size of your object you may not be able to see any

obvious change.)

OBJECT STYLE PANEL: COLOR TAB

1. Fill color determines how an object is filled. The first option, None, applies no fill

to an object making it clear. The second option, Color, fills an object with a solid

color which you choose by right-clicking the color square or by selecting it from

the Color Palette, or with the Eyedropper tool. The third option, Gradient, fills an

object with a special gradient pattern. To choose the gradient, click the color

square to open the Magic Gradient dialog box and select a gradient from one of

the available methods. The final option, Texture, fills an object with a special

texture pattern. To choose this texture, click on the color square to open the

Magic Textures dialog box and select a texture from one of the displayed thumb-

nails.

2. Fill type specifies how to apply the fill. The first option, Even-Odd Fill, toggles

between filling the entire object or only areas which do not overlap. When not

selected, the fill is applied to the entire object, otherwise the fill is only applied to

areas where there is no overlap. (If the object does not have any overlap, then the

fill is applied to the entire object.) The second option, Fill Precedence, toggles

between applying a fill to overlapping areas or entire areas of an object. When not

selected, the entire object is filled, otherwise any areas of objects which overlap

are filled, leaving exposed areas untouched.
