| Info: Line
The Line pane of the Info window lets you change the appearance of selected lines. To put a line ending at the head or tail of a line, choose from the two columns of line endings. The column on the left sets the tail of the line and the column on the right sets the head of the line. There is a slider beneath each column of line endings that controls the size of the line ending. Lines with midpoints can be drawn in three ways: with straight lines between each point, with curved lines from point to point, or with horizontal and vertical line segments connecting in stairstep fashion. To change which style a line uses, click one of the three buttons in the center. To switch the head and tail endpoints of a line, click Reverse. Click Remove Extra Points to delete any additional midpoints that have been added to a line. A line can have up to three text labels along it. To add or remove a label, choose Main Label, Tail Label, or Head Label in the popup menu and check the Show Label box. The options below allow you to further customize whichever label is selected in the menu:
• | The Location slider moves the label along the length of the line.
• | The Offset slider determines the label's position above, below, or beside the line.
• | The Orientation popup menu changes the direction the label is drawn in.
• | If the Fill box is checked, the label will have a solid background of the color in the color well.
