When I import images and apply a 1pt or 2pt border from Object Properties, there is no border on the image.  Am I missing something?

    Hi,

     

    You have to select a "pen pattern" in the Graphics Toolbar.

    In View | Toolbars click Graphics Toolbar to show this toolbar.

    Select your image.

    In the Graphics Toolbar click on the Pen Pattern icon to select one of the patterns.

    Check the Set Color icon that there your color is selected.

    Yes. The Graphics toolbar and the Object Properties panel should be aligned

     

    Best regards

    Thanks Winfried!  That did it.  One more question.  Is there any way to add pen selection to all images instead of adding pen selection to each imag, individually?

    You can create an object style with your settings and apply this to your graphics files. Open the online help and search for object style for an explanation.

    I do not know, if you can apply an object style to all your graphics with a single command. I guess you would have to write an ExtendScript to do this. This should not be too difficult.

    Forgot to add that I am using latest version of Frame.
