# Form Inspector

The Form Inspector lets you make adjustments to the outline shapes of balloons, balloon tails, captions and panels.

- Balloon kind

  Changes the balloon shape.

- Balloon variety

  Changes the balloon variety for the selected shape.

- Balloon tail

  Changes the tail shape between curved, straight and jagged. If you've adjusted the curve of the tail manually then checking the box will switch the tail back to an automatic mode where the curve of the tail is calculated for you. See Modifying Tails for more information.

- Caption or Panel
  Comic Life includes a number of panel and caption forms you can use for fancy outlines. Some of these outlines support variations using the factor field to increase or decrease the effect (such as the amount of beveling).
