Frame Style

The frame refers to the way pictures, frames, formulas, margins and other objects look like on screen. This includes their position, relative size, borders, column divisions and even the that may have been applied to them.

Open Office lets you assign frame styles to objects using the styles and formatting window.

Different frame styles are used for different purposes when writing a document. Most of the styles classified in this is used for a particular object. For example, there is a frame style you can use that automatically positions an image as a water mark. This places the image behind all others, and lets text objects be placed on top of it. There are also other styles for objects in the margin, as labels and the like.

There are several frame styles which are readily available for use. You can however, modify or even create your own frame style. See the links below for more information.
