Style Header Border

Use the Page header table cell border setting to add a visible border to the header. The borders can be useful when you are setting up your header and you need to see the cell boundaries so that you can better judge the cell widths.

Note

The header will appear on every page and may appear as a line on the front cover. This is because the front cover header does not show the header text and so has a forced block height of 0.

Select Layout in the top menu.

Paligo displays a list of Layouts. The list is empty if there are no custom Layouts in your Paligo instance.
Select the Layout you want to update or Create a Layout.

Tip

You can copy the URL of the Layout Editor and paste it into a new tab in your browser. This can be useful if you frequently switch between your Paligo content and the Layout settings.
Select Header and Footer and then Page header.
Set the border styling in the Page header table cell border field.
To get a medium-thickness, dashed line border and you want it blue, you would enter medium dashed blue.

Use these values to define the line thickness, style, and color:
- Thickness
  thin
  
  medium
  
  thick
  
  Exact value (also known as "length"). Enter a width measurement including the units of measurement, for example, 3pt.
- Style
  None - There is no border.
  
  Hidden - There is a border but it cannot be seen.
  
  Dotted - The border is a dotted line.
  
  Dashed - The border is made up of short lines.
  
  Solid - The border is a single line with no breaks.
  
  Double - The border is two lines with no breaks.
  
  Groove - The border has lines and shading to create a "pressed down" look.
  
  Ridge - The border has lines and shading to create a "raised" look.
  
  Inset - The border has lines and shading to create a "pressed down" look. It is similar to the groove style, but uses a different line and shading pattern.
  
  Outset - The border has lines and shading to create a "raised" look. It is similar to the ridge style, but uses a different line and shading pattern.
  
  Alternatively, select Default to inherit the value for this setting from the base Layout. To learn about base Layouts, see Layout Relationships - Base, New, Duplicate.
- Color
  Color name, such as silver
  
  RGB value, such as rgb(192,192,192)
  
  Hex number, such as #C0C0C0
Select Save.

Tip

When you have finished designing your header, you can turn the table cell border off by entering none as the value.
