Hi,
I can't work out how to add a border to an image, I'm sure it must be simple.
Thanks
Peter

Re: Image border
Hi Peter,
Select the image, then select the Image Editor tool in the Project tab to open the image in the Impict screenshot editor included with Help+Manual. Then select the image there and use the Shape tool on the right to add a border. Save the image in Impict and reload the topic in Help+Manual to see the changes (switch to another topic and back is the quickest way). You can also right-click on the image and select reload in the context submenu.
Impict has its own extensive help with tutorials.

Re: Image border
Hi Tim,
I was hoping the image control had a border option similar to a paragraph or table (or images in HelpXplain).
I've got a lot to do so will batch them in Irfanview.
Cheers
Peter

Re: Image border
That would be possible quite easily, but then it would only work in HTML-based output and not in PDF or Word. That's why we don't provide it directly as an option. You can achieve it yourself quite easily, however. You can add a CSS class name to images in their insertion options (double-click on the image to access) and then you can add border CSS for that class to the skin you're using.Peter Muckle wrote:I was hoping the image control had a border option similar to a paragraph or table (or images in HelpXplain).
