FORMAT

 

The format part of a GPD declares formatting attributes associated with concepts. Formatting attributes take the form of X windows resource declarations. Some of the most common are: ``font=somefont'' (to set the font for that concept), ``borderWidth=1'' (to set a border around some concept), ``width=300'' (to set the width of that item in the window), ``leftMargin=35'' (to indent just a bit), and so on. Figure 7.26 shows the FORMAT section of the `text' GPD, which includes some interesting formatting.
