Touchup (FOSI only) Dialog Box
Allows you to modify the appearance of the selected content using the _touchup processing instruction set of attributes. Note that any modifications made are only effective in print/PDF output generated by the FOSI engine.
Options that may be specified are:
• Font — allows you to specify font style, posture, weight, style leading, width, family name and offset.
• Highlight — allows you to specify scoring style, color, spacing, weight and offset, as well as font color, background color, and whether to use all capitals. Score spaces is ignored if a built-in underline style is selected. wordsonly is the only style that skips spaces between font characters.
You can specify colors by entering named colors or RGB specifications preceded by #.
Score weight specifies the thickness of the rule. Enter a numeral and a unit of measure (for example, 3pi, 35mm-1pt, 0.45in +2pt, 1cm).
Score offset specifies the offset for the base of the rule from the text baseline. Enter a numeral followed by a unit of measure (for example, 2pt). To place a score below the baseline, enter a positive value. To place a score above the baseline, enter a negative value.
Score style selections are:
◦ curvy
places a single curvy wave underline
◦ curvydouble
places a double curvy wave underline
◦ curvyheavy
places a single thick curvy wave underline
◦ dash
places a single, dashed underline
◦ dashheavy
places a single, thick dashed underline
◦ dot
places a single, dotted underline (individual dots are actually squares)
◦ dotdash
places a single underline of alternating dots and dashes
◦ dotdashheavy
places a single, thick underline of alternating dots and dashes
◦ dotdotdash
places a single underline of a repeating pattern of two dots and a dash
◦ dotdotdashheavy
places a single thick underline of a repeating pattern of two dots and a dash
◦ dotheavy
places a single thick dotted underline (individual dots are actually squares)
◦ double
places a double plain underline
◦ heavy
places a single, thick underline
◦ inherit
use the default
◦ jagged
places a single jagged wavy underline
◦ jaggeddouble
places a double jagged wavy underline
◦ jaggedheavy
places a single, thick jagged wavy underline
◦ longdash
places a single wider dash underline
◦ longdashheavy
places a single, thick wider dash underline
◦ off
turns scoring off
◦ on
turns scoring on and applies a single underline
◦ underline
places a single, plain underline
◦ wordsonly
places a single underline for words but omits underlines for spaces.
• Breaks — allows you to specify page break characteristics.
• Vertical — allows you to specify the amount of vertical space for elements.
• Horizontal — allows you to specify spacing characteristics for horizontal elements.
• Columns — allows you to specify whether columns should inherit and how they should be aligned.
• Suppress — prevents text from displaying in the output.
In addition, the following buttons apply the described actions:
• Validate — verifies that all entered values are valid, but does not apply changes or close the dialog box.
• Reset — resets the changed attribute value for the element at the cursor location to the value it had when you opened the dialog box.
• Reset All — resets all the changed attribute values to the values they had when you opened the dialog box.
• Delete — removes the selected attribute value setting for the element at the cursor location in the dialog box.
• Delete All — removes all modified attribute value settings. (It returns all the value settings to their original unmodified state.)
The _touchup processing instruction has nine additional attributes named attr1 through attr9. These attributes can be used for whatever purposes you wish to use them. They are not used by Arbortext Editor. They do not appear in the Edit window or in the Touchup (FOSI only) dialog box. You can set and retrieve values for these attributes using ACL.
