Pinned Styles

A Pinned Style is a collection of visual style settings that have been “pinned” by the user for later re-use.

If you find yourself creating frames, tables, or lines with the same appearance over and over again it can be useful to 'Pin' the style to save you making the same visual changes each time.

You can 'Pin' different styles for frames, tables, and lines. These styles will be available each time you open the software and will remain until you pin a new style.
