06 General attributes of frames

Every frame type has a list of attributes which defines its individual character. The following list shows a few attributes which may be uses by multiple frame types.

• Margins (left, top, right and bottom).
• Flags if the frame may use the full width or height of the surrounding frame.
• Alignment (horizontal and vertical).
• Maximal sizes
• Flag if a frame should keep all content on one page.
• Background color
• Lines around a box
• Directions (horizontal or vertical)

All these attributes I will describe in detail later in this document when discussing the different frame types..
