Discrepancy between Stroke and Character DecorationsPanels


Recommended Posts

I was playing with setting a stroke around some text, and I noticed some odd differences between what the Stroke panel shows and what the Character panel shows under Decorations.

1. The two red Style boxes agree that I have a line stroke. The green box in the Decorations panel never changes. It always shows that I have no stroke.

2. The two blue Width boxes show the same slider value for the stroke width, but the one in the Decorations panel is stuck on 0pt even though I have a 3pt stroke according to the slider and according to the Stroke panel.

This seems to be fixed in build 139. Let us know if you have any more issues.

Thanks, Gabe.

It may be better, but still not quite right, I think. Note the following screenshot from .139:

I have the Text Frame tool selected, and some text highlighted in the frame, and I set a stroke for the text. The Stroke panel shows that, but the Decorations in the Character panel still shows no stroke. Even clicking on the stroke part of the Decorations still shows as no stroke. However, it will update to match the Stroke panel if I click somewhere in the workspace, or change tools.
