Circles are quite common in our daily lives. When drawing a circle on paper, we can use a compass to draw it easily. Have we ever noticed that circles also appear in the labels of some items. Labels are made through label making software, such as anti-counterfeiting labels, goods flow labels, etc. In label making software, label specifications and content can be customized according to actual needs. Therefore, sometimes circular or elliptical shapes, rounded rectangles, etc. need to be drawn in labels. So today, we will talk about how to draw circles in barcode printing software?
1. Create a new label in the barcode printing software and draw a circle. Select the "Oval" icon button in the left toolbar, hold down the shift key, click the left mouse button to determine the starting point, then drag the mouse to draw a shape in the blank space of the label, and click the left mouse button again to end the drawing. As shown in the following figure:
2. Set the graphic properties of the circle. Select a circle on the label, double-click the left mouse button, or right-click on the circle and select Properties. The "Shape Properties" window will pop up. Under this window, personalized settings such as drawing edges and filling colors can be made for circles. Under the Graphics Properties window, select the Style tab. Select the line type as dotted line, color as green, and thickness as 0.2 to obtain the effect image shown in the following figure.
In addition to setting circular edges, the leading barcode printing software can also fill the interior of the circle. The types of filling include solid, dotted, diagonal, grid, gradient, and other forms; The background color can be set to the background color inside the circle; The shading type and subsequent colors are re edited and set for the line types in the filling type; Line width and spacing can be set according to actual needs. So here we set the type of circle to "vertical line", the background color to "yellow", the background color to "dotted line", the background color to "red", the line width to 0.1, and the line spacing to 4, to obtain the effect shown in the following figure. Upon careful observation, the effect is still very obvious.
In addition, under the "Style" option, there is also an "Invisible" function, which means that if this option is checked, the circle no longer exists. This function is also very practical in special needs. Under the "Graphic Properties" window, in addition to the "Style" option, there is also a "Basic" function option that allows you to set the name, size, and other parameters of the circle. It is also very easy to operate.
The above is the method of drawing a circle in barcode printing software, which can also be used to draw a straight line. In short, there are many practical tips in the software that reflect the intelligence and flexibility of this label making software.
