Question 1

What elements can I apply borders to in the QuoteCloud Document Editor?

Accepted Answer

In the QuoteCloud Document Editor you can apply borders to rows, columns, and individual content blocks. Each element exposes its own border settings so you can style container-level borders independently from borders around specific content blocks.

Question 2

Where do I find the border settings for a row, column or content block?

Accepted Answer

Select the row, column, or content block on the editor canvas, then open that element's properties panel. The border controls — including style, width, colour, side selection, and radius — are available in the properties panel for the selected element.

Question 3

What border properties can I change in QuoteCloud?

Accepted Answer

QuoteCloud exposes common border properties: border style (for example solid or dashed), border width (thickness), border colour, which sides the border applies to (top, right, bottom, left), and border radius for rounded corners. Use the selected element's properties panel to set these values.

Question 4

Can I apply different borders to each side of an element?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The border controls allow per-side selection so you can apply distinct borders to the top, right, bottom, or left edge of a row, column, or content block. This makes it easy to create custom separators and visual emphasis without affecting all sides.

Question 5

How do borders interact with padding and margins?

Accepted Answer

Borders are rendered between an element's content and the outside margins. If you need spacing inside the border, increase the element's padding. If you need spacing outside the element, adjust the element's margins. Use padding for inner spacing and margins for external spacing to achieve the intended layout around borders.

Question 6

Any best practices for using borders in sales quotes and proposals?

Accepted Answer

Use borders sparingly to improve readability: apply subtle, consistent border colours and widths to separate sections like itemised lists, totals, and signatures. Keep line styles simple (solid or subtle dashed) and avoid heavy borders that distract from content. For branded documents created with sales quoting software or sales proposal software, match border colours to your brand palette and use border radius to soften corners for a modern look.Also test documents in preview and PDF export to ensure borders and spacing render as intended across devices and when using quote software or proposal software workflows.

Question 7

Can I create rounded corners and control border radius?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The element properties panel includes a border radius control so you can set rounded corners for rows, columns, and content blocks. Adjust the radius value to achieve subtle rounding or more pronounced curves to match your document style.

Question 8

Will borders appear correctly when I export or share documents created in QuoteCloud?

Accepted Answer

Borders set in the editor are applied to the element styles and are typically included when you preview, export to PDF, or share documents. If you notice differences after export, check element padding and margins and use the preview function to confirm the final layout before sending a quote or proposal.
