&#13;
My major Wish is to create horizontal lines with typeshape and "controlcreate()".&#13;
I have a problem with the direction of shapes created with "controlcreate()". They are created vertically, and I want to change their Direction to horizontal to get a horizontal line. Modifying a manually created shape in the details-tab works, because there is the option called "Display Direction", but I didn't found a command for doing this by programming.&#13;
Does someone know how to change the direction by programming?&#13;
&#13;
OR:&#13;
I also thought of coloring its background with "..brushcolor = xxx" to get a black vertical line and a black background. the  The control is created like []=control border , ||=line [                                     ||                            ]. With black line and black background it would look like a horizontal line. But the "..brushcolor = xxx"-command doesn't change the backgroundcolor. It looks like doing nothing. Trying to modify it in the description of a manually created shape seems to work only with gradient colors.&#13;
How can I change the background color by programming?&#13;
&#13;
ONE last idea was to make the vertical line thicker, so it also looks horizontally.&#13;
How can I change the thickness of a created shape by programming? (..thickness doesn't work)&#13;
&#13;
Hope for your Help! &#13;

&#13;
If it's just about a line, an image field and dline will do the trick&#13;
