q166132 Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 Hello all, I want to do the following text frame strokes: Left = 1 mm Right = 1 mm Botton = 1 mm Top = 5 mm At this moment I do it like this: I make a stroke on all side with 1 mm. Then I using the Pen Tool and make a curve on the top of my text frame. Is there a better way? Thanks Mike #StayAtHome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carl123 Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 You could try a 2 row (1 column) table with the top row set to "Autofit Row to Contents" (set at 5mm). Then save this as an asset Quote To save time I am currently using an automated AI to reply to some posts on this forum. If any of "my" posts are wrong or appear to be total b*ll*cks they are the ones generated by the AI. If correct they were probably mine. I apologise for any mistakes made by my AI - I'm sure it will improve with time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thomaso Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 Depending on your use of such an object and of a table's limitations in text editing you alternatively might prefer a text frame with an additional top line, for instance: A text style for the first line only, showing the 5 mm top stroke as paragraph decoration: borders txt frm & style deco.m4v Or, with less influence to the first line text style but with additional needs when changing the frame width: a text frame + the top stroke as a pinned rectangle object (haven't tried all pinning options): borders txt frm & pinned rect.m4v Quote macOS 10.14.6 | MacBookPro Retina 15" | Eizo 27" | Affinity V1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
