Although you might use the Line tool first when creating line frames, please keep in mind that lines are also shapes. And also line frames in iCalamus don't have to keep their content – you can easily change them at any time. Simply choose the item 'Nowy linia' and select one of the offered line shapes.
The first group of line shapes offers base lines which cannot be changed. The second group offers 'dynamic' line shapes which bring along user-editable parameters. All line shapes are described in detail below.
There is not much to say about the first four basic line shapes. Use them, add line symbols (e.g. arrow tips) and different line strokes, colors and shadows to adjust the lines to your needs.
Draw shapecheckbox in the Frame inspector.
This line shape looks rather simple but it is really powerful. Increase the default number of lines from 3 to 5 – and you get perfect line frames for music scores.
But there is more that multiple lines can offer. Using different
line ends, you should also try the Alternate direction
feature
as shown below.
A full circle is just a special case of a circle arc line here. A circle arc line is described by a start angle and an end angle. They form the outline of a circle.
This line basically forms a roof
but can be adjusted as you
like it. Please keep in mind that you can even flip these roofs
in horizontal or vertical direction (in the Geometry inspector) to get
more varieties.
