Select Style

The 'Style' box let you choose a style for your prototype. When you create a new prototype, there is no style set for it. As an example, you may have a prototype like the following.

To change the style, select one from the list. There is more than 20 that you can choose from.

The result will look like the following in 'Napkin' style.

Here's another example showing the 'Skin BBJ' style.
