When you click the Selection... button in the Appearance section, a separate dialogue box is displayed in which you can change the appearance of the boundary box that you are working with, whether you are creating a new or editing an existing one.
Figure 853: Dialogue box for selection of general appearance
In the Frame section of the diaogue, you have a number of radio buttons available to decide what line type to use for the box itself. Either it can be the standardised dashed line, or it can be a continuous line. Several other variants are also available, where only parts of the box are visible. The alternatives are described in the table below.
