Derive element line colours from fill colours
- If this is checked a diagram element's line colour is derived as a darker shade of its fill colour. You can adjust the amount of contrast with the "Contrast factor" control. If this option is set, user line colours are ignored.
Save the default fill colour for elements in the model file
If this is checked an element's default colour is saved in the model file and will then be "fixed" in the file. This ensures that if the file is shared with another user they will see these colours.
