Node Style dialog

(Redirected from Node Style Dialog)


The Node Style dialog lets you customize the display of one or more nodes in a diagram. You can display or hide incoming and outgoing arrows, the text label, border, fill color, and bevel, and change the typeface and font size. These options override any defaults set for in the Diagram Style dialog.

To open the Node Style dialog:

  1. Select one or more nodes in a diagram.
  2. Choose Set Node Style from the Diagram menu or the right-click menu.
  3. Select the options for which you want to override the default styles.
  4. Click OK.

Show: Checkboxes to show or hide:

Input arrows: Check to display arrows to this node from inputs in its Definition. Input and output arrows are on by default for nodes with definitions, except for indexes and functions. You can change these defaults in the Diagram Style dialog.
Output arrows: Check to display arrows from this node to outputs that use this node in their definitions.
Label: Check to display the title in the node. By default, this is checked for all nodes. On by default for all nodes.
Border: Check to display a thin black border around the node. On by default except for Text nodes.
Fill color: Check to display the color in the node. You can change the color with the Color palette. On by default except for Text nodes.
Bevel: Check to show a bevel effect around the node. By default, this is checked only for button nodes. Off by default
Tip
A filled checkbox (Conflicted dialog checkbox.png) indicates that this option is not the same for all selected nodes. If you leave it unchanged (filled), each node keeps its current setting. If you change it (on or off), it changes all nodes to the new setting.

Font style: To override the default diagram font, select Use custom font. Then you can change the font size and style from the defaults. You can modify the defaults for a diagram or the whole model in the Diagram Style dialog.

Label alignment: Select alignment (a.k.a. justification) for the node label as: Left, Center or Right. (New in Analytica 5.0)

Control on: For user input or user output node, select whether the control button appears to the left or to the right (default) of the label. (New in Analytica 5.0)
