Is there a way to a border around an object on your page? I would think that would be a basic function.

What kind of object?

Eric, maybe a box of text, or a photo.

Paste this into the Header html of an html box.


Paste this code to the Body HTML of the same html box.

Adjust as needed.

Thanks Eric, I'll give it a try.

Here's my example.

Hi Stephen,

You can add a border to any graphical object, by using the 'effect' option. Select your object, click on the 'effect' option in the top menu, tick 'shadow', choose the border color you want, choose 'both' for style, set offset to 1 or 2 (=one pixel border) set softness to zero and opacity to what you want (50% is OK).
If you want to do this with a text object, you'll have to follow Eric's example or write the text in a shape. Writing text in a shape gives you the additional advantage that you can use any font...

Success, John
