inDesign Tip #13 Creating a custom stroke style

What we are accomplishing: Creating your own custom stroke, so as to fit your needs.

Creating a custom stroke is quite simple, it’s just not very obvious.  First, you will need to open your strokes palette.  If you do not have it open, you can go to Window > Stroke to open it.  Once here, you should click on the flyout menu and select Stroke Styles.  This will bring up a new dialog box that contains the stroke styles you currently have.  Clicking on New will bring up another dialog box where you can change settings to create your new stroke style.  Just change the name and modify the settings to fit your preference.  Voila!  You have successfully created a new stroke style.
