Height and graphic styleSet the scale and appearance of the selected figure.

Use Height to scale the figure. Choose the graphic style to suit the drawing or model view, from a filled silhouette to the available lighter line-based treatments.

Where the pose includes adjustable props, use their controls to change the relevant options. These settings belong to the selected figure; they do not change the catalogue category.
