A make-up is used to customize the appearance of individual graphic objects or Graphic Sheets. It includes all the information corresponding to the object Properties, such as X/Y axis limits, X/Y object position, Layers, and X/Y axis titles.

It can be saved in a .mkup file (which is a XML File) that can further be used for any other graphic objects or Graphic Sheets of the same type as well as in a command line mode.


Note: do not mix the two types of make-up files, unless you want to run into errors.


Note: only one type of context menu among the several available is shown.
