editMenu.setShadow

Syntax editMenu.setShadow (setting)

Params setting is a boolean determining if selected text should be shadowed (true) or have the shadow style removed (false) if it is presently shadowed.

Action Turn shadow style on or off for the current text selection, depending on value of setting.

Returns True if a change was made, false otherwise.

Examples edit (@examples.styleTest)

   » true

Select any line that is not shadowed. Now type and execute:
editMenu.setShadow (true)

   » true

Notice that the text is now shadowed. Type and execute:
editMenu.undo ()


   » true

Text returns to its original style.

edit (@examples.styleTest)

   » true

Select the fourth line in the document. Now type and execute:
editMenu.setOutline (true)


   » false

This text was already shadowed, so no style change took place. Verb returns false to let you know that.

Notes Performs the same action as selecting the Shadow command from the Style sub-menu of the Frontier Edit menu.

This verb, like all of the others related to styled text, only works in word processing text windows, not in outlines or tables.
