12. Lines

Drawing lines

The line creation tools produce horizontal, vertical, and diagonal straight lines and arrows to which a variety of styles, endcaps, colors, and opacities (new in QuarkXPress 7) can be applied. Using the Dashes & Stripes command, which is covered in this chapter, you can create custom line styles for use with the line tools, the Frame command, or the paragraph Rules command. In QuarkXPress 7, you can also apply drop shadows to lines.
