Len,
First off, if you hold down the shift key while drawing your line, you
should be able to make it perfectly vertical. Second, after your line
is drawn, simply adjust the lineSize property, which is under Border -
> Size on the first pane of the property palette. You can also adjust
the length using the height property. So I think the trick is to use
lineSize rather than width to adjust the line thickness.
HTH,

I can't do it (accurately) with the mouse so I'm drawing a pretty
close
approximation of vertical and then I want to use the property
inspector to
"correct" the line and make it vertical. The problem is if I move the
bottom of the line, the top moves. If I move the top, the bottom
moves.
It seems to be trying to create a line inside the corners of a
rectangle
and therefore, I can never get a truly vertical line.
Any ideas as to what I'm doing wrong here? For what it's worth, I'm
trying to put on lines that are somewhere around 6 to 8 pixels
"thick."
Thanks!
