Attributes

Description

<shadow> (Border shadow)

Specifies whether this border should be modified to create the appearance of a shadow.

For the right and bottom borders, this is accomplished by duplicating the border below and right of the normal border location. For the left and top borders, this is accomplished by moving the border down and to the right of its original location.

If this attribute is omitted, then the border is not given the shadow effect.

example: 
<wd:bordertop wd:shadow="true" ... />

This element's @shadow attribute is true, indicating that the shadow effect shall be applied to the border. ]

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_BorderShadow simple type (§6.3.3.1).

<type> (Border Style)

Specifies the style of border used on this object.

See the simple type definition for a description of each border style.

example: 
<wd:borderleft wd:type="single" …/>

This border's @type is single, indicating that the border style is a single line. ]

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_BorderType simple type (§6.3.3.2).

<width> (Border Width)

Specifies the width of the current border.

The width of this border is specified in measurements of eighths of a point, with a minimum value of two (one-fourth of a point) and a maximum value of 96 (twelve points). Any values outside this range may be reassigned to a more appropriate value.

example: 
<wd:bordertop wd:type="dashed" wd:width="24" …/>
<wd:borderleft wd:type="dashed" wd:width="24" …/>
<wd:borderbottom wd:type="dashed" wd:width="24" …/>
<wd:borderright wd:type="dashed" wd:width="24" …/>

The @width attribute specifies the size in eighths of a point (24 eighths of a point = 3 points). ]

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the XML Schema positiveInteger datatype.
