Questions: Setting the borderWidth (lineSize) of a graphic through script

[Roland Huettmann]

Mark is right,

I tested again and it is obviously a documentation error.

Tested on Windows 8.1, LC 7.1 and LC 8.0 dp 13:

ShowBorder was set to true in all cases.
ThreeD must be set to false in the case of buttons, etc.

LineSize: Works exclusively on graphics, NOT on other objects

BorderWidth works on objects such as fields, buttons, etc. but NOT on
graphics.

According to Dictionary borderwWdth and lineSize are synonyms and even an
example is given which does not work.

I will file a little documentation error report.
