The General tab options are:
Rotation | For all systems. Use the scroll arrows to choose |
| from the list of rotation angles. For example, to |
| rotate an object 45 degrees, choose 45. |
| Note: For bar code objects, the only valid values |
| are 0 and 90 degrees. |
| After rotating an object, you may not set an absolute |
| size for that object. You may, however, use the |
| Increase Size and Decrease Size tools to change |
| the size. (See Using Increase Size and Decrease |
| Size on page |
|
|
No fill/Solid fill | These options appear on the HotShape Properties |
| General tab only. Select to set the default fill for the |
| HotShape object. The fill is the background pattern |
| inside the object. Choose: |
| • No fill to leave objects transparent. |
| • Solid fill to make the background inside the |
| object a solid color. |
|
|
Print/Cut out | For the Color & Cut system only. Set to indicate |
| that the object is for printing or to be cut out. In the |
| Monocolor and Multicolor systems, print object is |
| the only option. See Creating Cut Out Objects on |
| page |

| around the outside of a cut text object. You can then |
| strip the waste from around the text. |

|
Line width field | For all systems. Use to set and to view a line width |
| for a frame for a text object. The default is 0, which |
| indicates that the object is not framed. A sample of |
| the line width you select is shown next to the field. |
