Controlling the display of rounded corners in Flash Mode

Before you begin

Rounded corners are used on rounded rectangles and panel stacks in documents and Report Services (RS) dashboards. This topic focuses on rounded rectangles, although the properties are the same for panel stacks. For specific information on rounded corners on panel stacks, including a procedure, see Displaying rounded corners on panel stacks (Flash Mode only).

You can control how rounded corners are displayed for rounded rectangles in Flash Mode by:

  • Defining the radius, which sets how round the corners are. A larger radius produces a more rounded corner. The range is 1 - 20. For an example, see the Document Creation Help.

  • Selecting whether rounded corners are displayed for the top corners only or all four corners.

The rounded corners properties apply to Flash Mode only. In PDF view or other Web display modes, rounded corners display as square, right-angle corners. That is, rounded rectangles and rectangles look the same in PDF view and in all Web display modes except Flash Mode.

To control the display of rounded corners in Flash Mode

  1. Open the document in the Document Editor in Design view. How?

  2. Select the rounded rectangle to format.

  3. In the Property List: Appearance section, set the Rounded corner radius, which defines how round the corners are.

  4. By default, all four corners are rounded. To round the top corners only, set Top corners only to True.

To view the effect, open the document in Flash Mode in MicroStrategy Web.
