Border Question

I would like to achieve a similar effect to the home page of this site
http://www.simonnicholaswhite.com/
where there is a line above and below the image.
Using WebDev this appears to be a box with a ‘border’ top and bottom ?

How is this achieved please ? I have tried reading the manual and searching here before posting.

Assuming you’re using FWPro, then the method is found in the Inspector.

Select your box, click the Appearance button in the Inspector, and
note the Border section.

Reveal this, and click the Custom… button.

From the resulting dialog, you can choose to have a border on any one
or all of the four sides, different widths, styles and colours. In
your case, apply the border to the Top and Bottom sections, leaving
the other two as None.

Hope that helps.

From looking at the code this is the equivalent of a layered HTML
item that is as large as you want it to be with a custom border (top
and bottom), then a layer graphic item placed in the middle of it
(theirs is not a child item, so not contained within the HTML item,
but yours could be).

See an example here:

and download the Freeway file here:

Hope this helps.

Heather and Joe Thank you :slight_smile:

Now I understand, I thought it should be a graphic box and couldn’t find the dialogue box referred to - silly me, this is going to be a steep learning curve for me.
Thanks to you both for your help and Joe for the file.
