Colors and Patterns - Top and Bottom Bevels

revsanphos · Post by **revsanphos** » Thu Apr 12, 2007 5:02 pm

Hi,

I created a Rectangular graphic.

Under Colors and Patterns (in the Object Inspector for the graphic) - the Top and Bottom Bevels are enabled. However, when I choose a color for each, or just one, the color is not applied to the graphic.

Am I missing a step?

Thank you,

Kevin

RunRev removed the relevant properties from the gui of the inspector (probably due to being incompatible with the antialiased stuff). However you can still set them via script or the message box:

set the showborder of graphic x to true
set the threed of graphic x to true

If you have set the colours, the graphic should show them now.

Thank you.

That works.

With the script applied, there is a difference when Antialiased (Basic Properties) is on and off.

Slightly related - I just figured out Dashed lines (Basic Properties) works when Antialiased is off.

That would be worth reporting it in the quality center. It has puzzled me for ages as to why ticking the dashed checkbox had no effect. It would be worth to suggest an enhancement by which ticking the dashed box automatically switch the antialiasing off (with unticking of that box).

I reported it to the quality center. I included your suggestion (with credit). They have acknowledged it as a problem in Revolution 2.8.1 Beta 1.
