Why are my lines so light? (Read 1974 times)

	This is the code Sesame is generating for a "Line" element in my reports: Code <TD ALIGN=LEFT VALIGN=TOP><FONT COLOR="#000000" FACE="Arial" STYLE="FONT-SIZE:11pt"><HR></FONT></TD> On screen these look OK, a little grayed out, but there. However, when printed they're nearly invisible. I know I can get fancy and replace all these with handmade HTML code, but I wish that wasn't necessary, as I have a boatload of reports and they all use the Line element in some way. Is there some setting in my browser that I need to tweak to get these Sesame-generated lines to print?

	Bump. Hmmm, I guess no one else is having this problem. But here's another question I'll toss out there: Is it possible to adapt Sesame so that when I put a Line element in a report it configures the <HR> in the HTML code as <HR NOSHADE WIDTH=100% size=3 COLOR=#000000> ...?

	You can either do an ReportHTMLFilter() to swap the <HR> to <HR NOSHADE WIDTH=100% size=3 COLOR=#000000> Or you can add Static text of <HR NOSHADE WIDTH=100% size=3 COLOR=#000000> to the report instead of the line elements. -Ray

	Is there any way to mass replace all Line elements in a report with a Static Text element with this value?

	Hi Scott. May be able to that with a third party utility. Contact me off line.

	Actually, you may also be able to do something sneaky with XML Export/Import. Hmmm...
