Text Color

The color of the note text. The dialog box field shows you the name of the color along with a sample of that color.

Background Color

The color inside the outline box. For example, you might want to flag a "warning" note with a red background. Be careful not to set the Text color to be the same as the Background Color, or the text will be invisible.

Note Margin

The amount of space, in inches, to reserve around the note text within the border.

Border Settings

Style

You can choose to have your note text surrounded by nothing (None), a Box, or a Rounded Box.

Color

If you do choose to have a border, this is the border color. If this particular note has a leader, the leader will also be this color.

Weight

How thick to make the border line. You can choose from five weights.
