Bevel: All corners are cut at an angle.

Order: A pop-up menu lets you choose whether an outline is drawn over or under the
fill color or gradient. The effect is more apparent with thicker outline widths.

Over Fill: Thick outlines appear on top of the selected fill of the shape. When an
outline’s thickness is increased, it grows both outward and inward.

Under Fill: Thick outlines are obscured beneath the selected fill of the shape. When
an outline’s thickness is increased, it only grows outward, not inward.

Feather: A slider that feathers (softens) the edges of a shape. Positive feathering values
soften the edge of the shape from its edge outward. Negative feathering values soften
the edge of a shape inward from the edge.
