how to turn off the gradient fill background?
« on: July 16, 2007, 03:41:20 am »
To obtain a better print result, I want to turn off the gradient fill in the class background. How can I do this?

 ???  I was able to do that in one of the 7.x Betas, but now I can't.  They must have "fixed" that.  ::)

It's in:
Tools / Options / Standard color / Show gradient fill [...]

Nope!  That only controls the gradient fill for the diagram sheet color, not the object itself.  I'm using build 813.

You're right, I will double read the question next time :)

It is on that page.

Just set the 'Gradient Fill Direction For an Element' to '<none>'.

That's the ticket! Works for all elements at once, perhaps across the entire project (have not investigated that yet.)
