Graphic text and border colour

[BNig]

David,

if you can live with black text than you can change the bordercolor by
setting the strokegradient
--------------------------
on mouseUp
   put "0.0,255,0,0" & return & "1,255,0,0" into myRamp -- make it all red
   set the strokegradient["ramp"] of graphic 1 to myRamp
   put the loc of graphic 1 into tLoc
   set the strokegradient["from"] of graphic 1 to tLoc
   set the strokegradient["to"] of graphic 1 to item 1 of tLoc & "," & the
bottom of grc 1
   set the strokegradient["via"] of graphic 1 to the left of grc 1 & "," &
item 2 of tLoc
   set the strokegradient["type"] of graphic 1 to "radial"
end mouseUp
-----------------------

this works with all the graphics, admittedly it is a bit awkward.

regards
Bernd
