Applying Line Properties

The LineProperties class is used to set the title and subtitle border line properties.

Before formatting the chart is seen in Fig. 833.

from ooodev.format.chart2.direct.legend.borders import LineProperties as LegendLineProperties
# ... other code

legend_line_style = LegendLineProperties(color=StandardColor.BRICK, width=0.8, transparency=20)
Chart2.style_legend(chart_doc=chart_doc, styles=[legend_line_style])

The results are seen in Fig. 696 and Fig. 697.
