When using WPS Icon Outline, common questions usually involve missing entry points, removing borders, line styles, and preview results; this section covers 4 frequent questions and practical solutions.
FAQ
Why can’t I see the Graphic Tools or Outline command?
- Make sure the current object is a selected icon.
- Click the icon, then check whether Graphic Tools appears on the top ribbon.
- If it still does not appear, try the Home tab, Format Object, or the side Properties entry point instead.
How do I quickly remove an icon border?
- Select the target icon.
- Open the Outline drop-down menu and select No Border Color, or open Object Properties.
- In the Line settings, select No Line.
How do I make a dashed icon border?
- Select the icon.
- Open the Outline menu.
- Click Dashes and choose the dash style you want.
- If you need more control, open More Settings and continue editing.
Why does the icon look larger after I increase the border thickness?
- The icon outline is displayed around the outside of the object, so a thicker line changes the overall visual range.
- Reduce the line thickness if needed, or adjust the icon size and position at the same time.
- Preview the result in the full slide layout and confirm that it still matches the surrounding elements.
