Changing Line Thickness

By default, when you draw a line, Report Builder makes it the thinnest of five available line weights. Follow these steps to change the line thickness:

  1. Select the line.
  2. Choose Properties Line Properties or double-click the line. The Line Properties dialog box appears:
  3. Select a line thickness from the Thickness drop-down list.
  4. Choose OK to apply the new thickness and return to the report layout.

You can change the thickness for both horizontal and vertical lines. However, increasing the line thickness affects the line’s positioning.

When you increase the thickness of a horizontal line, the bottom of the line remains anchored and the thickness increases upward. When you increase the thickness of a vertical line, the direction it increases depends upon the line’s alignment. The following table describes how Report Builder increases line thickness for each type of alignment:

Alignment
