What are styles in BidScreen XL?

A style controls how a takeoff is displayed. Five attributes: Line Color, Line Style (solid/dash/dot-dash/etc.), Line Width, Point Style (X, square, cross, circle — only used for counts), and Fill Pattern (only used for areas). Use Styles is disabled by default but recommended on for consistent takeoff appearance across a workbook.
