Stylebuilder: Preferences Dialog Box

The Preferences dialog box (Edit>Preferences) contains settings for Style Builder.

Saving

The Saving section of the Preferences dialog box contains warning settings appearing when saving a style.

Check this box if you want to receive a warning when your style has blank strokes. Blank strokes will appear as 50% transparent gray boxes, that are as wide as the stroke width, in SketchUp.

Check this box if you want to receive a warning when your style has no name.

Strokes

The Strokes section of the Preferences dialog box contains settings affecting the appearance of strokes in your style.

Check the Apply auto-contrast to stroke when added to the style when you want pixels added automatically to the stroke to achieve a better balance between bright and dark pixels.

Select one item from the list to identify how Style Builder should adjust the width of a stroke (when it must do so automatically).

Scale the image: Select the Sacle the image option to have the stroke stretched to fit new width.

Crop or pad the image: Select the Crop or pad the image to either remove pixels to make stroke thinner or add pixels to make it wider.

Ask me what to do: Select the Ask me what to do option to have Style Builder prompt you for an option when the width of a stroke must be adjusted.

Check the Always warn me before scaling a stroke automatically checkbox if you want Style Builder to warn you when you place a stroke in a set whose set length is larger than the stroke length.
