Changing Dimensions of a Design Element

Dimensions of the current design element can be reviewed and changed with the help of the Design Element tab of the Inspector window. The dimensions can be standard, custom or defined by paper.

To choose another paper template, open the Change Element pop-up menu on the Design Element tab of the Inspector and choose Design Element From Layout. For more detail, see Choosing Paper.

Some design elements have different preset types. For example, a disc label may have large or small hub hole. To choose one of the alternative dimensions, click the Presets pop-up menu on the Design Element tab of the Inspector.

You can modify dimensions of design elements. Parameters that can be changed can be found on the Design Element tab in the Sizes section. To save new dimensions for future use, click the Presets pop-up menu and choose Save As. A new preset will appear in the Presets menu.

A custom template editor in Disc Cover lets customize existing printer tray and paper templates, and create new ones. This is a more flexible way to customize templates than using size controls in the Inspector.
For more detail, see the Customizing a Pre-Defined Template section.
