Border

Overview

Creates an effect that outlines a display element with a border.

String Setup

• Positioning - Determines how the target elements are treated. Either as individual strings or by their actual location in the display preview. Locations is often referred to as whole house, but it can be any form of multiple props. Generally you want Strings when applying to one prop and locations if the target is multiple props.

• Orientation - Controls the orientation of the display area (matrix).
