Border Customization Settings

  1. Rounded Corners: Choose the corner radius to create rounded edges.

    • Linked Values: By default, all corners are linked, ensuring the same radius for all.

    • Unlink Values: Click the chainlink icon to apply different radii to each corner.

  2. Border Styles: Choose to apply a border to all sides or specific sides (top, right, bottom, left).

  3. Border Width: Choose the width of the border using the slider or by entering a value. Borders must be at least 1px wide to appear.

  4. Border Color: Choose a color for the border using your site’s palette or the color picker.

  5. Border Style: Choose a style for the border. Options include:

    • Solid

    • Double

    • Groove

    • Ridge

    • Inset

    • Outset

    • None (to remove the border)

Tips for Using Border Options

  • Highlight Key Elements: Use borders to draw attention to specific modules or create visual separation.

  • Keep It Subtle: Stick with thinner borders and softer colors for a clean, modern look.

  • Experiment with Styles: For a creative or decorative touch, try different border styles (e.g., dashed or dotted).

  • Round Corners for Softness: Rounded corners can soften the appearance of your module and match modern design trends.
