Questions regarding objects drawn with the Rectangle Tool

Hello,

I have two questions regarding objects drawn with the Rectangle Tool:

[ul]Can the stroke style be changed dynamically? I see that you can link it to a tag, but I’m insure of the format of such a tag

Can you assign styles to the rectangle object? I’m creating a template and when I click on the Styles “Dataset Viewer” a warning popup appears that says, “There is no data”.[/ul]

Thanks for your help.

  1. I don’t know how to do it.
  2. First create a custom property to “drive” the style. Otherwise, you will have to use Angle, Height, Width, X, Y, or Data Quality. Unless you want that.
    Right click on the rectangle -> Customizers -> Style Customer (or Ctrl-2)
    Now select the Driving Property, then the properties you wish to change.
    Now you should not get the No Data Error any more.

Cheers,
Chris

The intent of binding the stroke of a rectangle would be to bind it to the stroke of other objects. That is all.
