Borders and Shading
To emphasize a paragraph in Atlantis Word Processor you may highlite it. Actually this will not highlite the „whole“ paragraph but only the text within it.
Some word processors allow to select whether borders and shading should only be used to format tables or table cells (see Table Properties in Atlantis Word Processor) or as well paragraphs, text (and even single letters).
How can this be achieved in Atlantis Word Processor?
See the ATTACHMENT how to do.

Paragraph borders and shading
This is a really nice feature. I tried it out in a test yesterday. I used 3/4 point for my border, and I think I used a border space of 2pt at top and bottom and 3pt for left and right. I selected a customized light gray for the shading.
A hint for people who may not have much experience with this kind of thing:
The shading looks darker in an actual paragraph than it does when you select a color.

Color of border shading
Yes, the colors are the same in the dialog and in the document window.
What I meant is that a medium gray, for example, may look great in a dialog but the darkness of that color may overwhelm the page when you have a whole paragraph of that shade. Therefore, I have found, it is better to select a shade that you think may be too light. In fact, it will probably be sufficiently dark when you use it over a large amount of text.
It is strictly an aesthetic issue. Each user will have to experiment to see what works for him.
