Problem
How to copy an existing linestyle and keep it in the same resource file so the user can then modify the text component.
Solution
- Open the existing linestyle resource file.
Element > Linestyles > File Open - Highlight the linestyle to be duplicated.
- Select duplicate.
> Edit > Duplicate
Once the linestyle has been duplicated you will have a duplicate point
and stroke. At this point you can then make the modification to the
linestyle that you want.
Once the modification is made.
- Go to Edit > Create > New and create a new linestyle.
- Next go to Edit > Create compound.
- Give the compound a new name and then add the sub components.
- Hit insert and then add the point and the stroke component.
- Next go to Edit > Link.
This will link the components to the new linestyle that has the modified
component.
