Steps to format borders in documents

Prerequisite

This procedure assumes you have already accessed the Format Objects dialog box in the Document Editor. For information on defining borders in reports, see To format the border.

To define borders

1. On the Border tab, select the Line Style, which is the style of line to use as the border. Your choices are No Line, Dashed, Dotted, Hair, Thin, Double, and Thick.

   The Hair line style cannot be displayed in reports viewed in MicroStrategy Web.

2. Select the color to use for the border by clicking the arrow next to Line Color.

3. Select which borders to apply the Line Style and Line Color to:

   • To apply the formatting to the entire border, click Outline in the Presets area.

   • To apply the formatting to specific sections of the border, click the Top Border, Bottom Border, Left Border, and/or Right Border buttons.

4. To remove the entire border, click None in the Presets area. You do not have to select a Line Style, Line Color, and so on. As you make changes, the Border area changes to show a preview of your selections.

5. Click OK to apply the border formatting and return to the document.
