Applying Borders and Shading. Borders and Shading. Borders are rules you can add to any or all of the four sides of a paragraph. Shading is the color or artistic design you use as background for a paragraph. Borders and shading are formatting tools for enhancing text, paragraphs, table cells or frames.
Commonly used borders and shading effects can be quickly added to text, paragraphs, frames and tables or table elements, using the Tables and Borders toolbar, or you can choose from a comprehensive list of borders and shading styles using the Bo r ders and Shading dialog box. Borders or shading applied to a paragraph will usually affect the entire paragraph, extending from the left indent to the right indent, even if the paragraph contains no or a very short line of text.
If you are not comfortable with the horizontal span of the effects of the borders or shading applied, you should adjust the indent markers on the ruler. The Borders and Shading dialog box enables you to select from a list of preset or custom borders and shading styles to add to selected text, paragraphs, etc.
Removing Borders. Just as easily as you added borders to items in a document, you can also remove the borders any time such borders no longer appeal to you. You can easily change such borders in the same approach. Follow the steps enumerated below to remove borders from items:. Alternatively, on the Format menu, click Borders and Shading. Borders and shading applied to a paragraph are added relative to the indents , so that the shading and border lines extend from the left indent of the selected paragraph to the right indent of the paragraph.
Even if the selected paragraph contains only a short line of text, or no text at all, borders and shading added will always extend from the left indent of the selected paragraph to the right indent of the paragraph.
Using the indent markers on the horizontal ruler, you can easily adjust the width of the bordered or shaded area in a paragraph containing short lines of text, to enhance its beauty. Here are the steps you should follow to change the width of the bordered or shaded area in a paragraph with short lines of text.
For a left-aligned paragraph, I'll recommend you drag the right-indent marker to adjust the width of the bordered or shaded area in the paragraph; and for a right-aligned paragraph, drag the small box below the left-indent marker; while for a centered paragraph, I'll recommend you adjust the width appropriately from left and right, by dragging the small box below the left indent marker to move the left and first-line indent markers, and then drag the right-indent marker proportionately.
If you apply a border to a group of paragraphs that have the same indents, Word encloses all the selected paragraphs within a single border of the setting you specified.
For instance, if you select a group of paragraphs having the same indents and apply a Box border, Microsoft Word displays a single box enclosing all the selected paragraphs, rather than enclosing each paragraph in a separate box. Also, if you select a group of paragraphs having the same indents and apply a top and bottom border, Microsoft Word displays one border above and another one below the whole block of selected paragraphs. In this circumstance, each of the paragraphs has the format, but borders are visibly displayed for only the first and last paragraphs in the group.
You can also add borders between a group of selected paragraphs. The button for adding borders between paragraphs will appear only when two or more paragraphs are selected.
Under the heading above, I mentioned that if you apply a border to a group of paragraphs that have the same indents, Word encloses all the selected paragraphs within a single border of the setting you specified. This will not be the case when you apply such borders to a group of paragraphs having different indents. For instance, if you select a group of paragraphs with different indents and apply a Box border to them, Word places each paragraph in a separate box.
This will not make a beautiful sight, you know? To place a group of paragraphs with different indents into a single box, follow these steps. On the Standard toolbar, click the Cut button; position the insertion point in the table, and then click Paste on the Standard toolbar. If you apply shading to a paragraph, without applying borders to it, you will usually find it impossible to increase the shaded area around the text in the paragraph.
