7 If you want to create an AEC Polygon tool from the new style, drag the style from the Style Manager to a
tool palette.
You can later rename the tool and specify other properties for it as described in “ Creating an AEC Polygon
Tool ” on page 982.

Changing the Width and Justification of the AEC Polygon Edges
Use this procedure to change the width and justification of the edges of an AEC Polygon in the AEC Polygon style. The
justification determines whether the edges are displayed inside, outside, or centered on the vertices of the AEC Polygon.
Justifying AEC Polygon edges
1 Open a tool palette containing an AEC Polygon tool.
2 Right-click an AEC Polygon tool, and click AEC Polygon Styles.
3 Select the AEC Polygon style.
4 Click the Dimensions tab.
5 To change the width of the AEC Polygon edges, enter a new value for Edge Width.
6 Change the justification of the AEC Polygon edges as desired:
Then … If you want to…
select In for Justify. display the edges inside the AEC Polygon vertices
