Rounded corners on spuds
To better match the design of your site or just because you prefer it, you can customize event and object detail popups and some control and promotion spuds by rounding the border corners.
What are event and object detail popups?
I need a refresher on the difference between control and promotion spuds.

How to round spud corners
When you round corners for detail popup, control, and promotion spuds, you're rounding corners on the spud borders. If you set a spud's border size to 0px (zero pixels), the rounded border setting won't have any effect.
If you expect to typically use rounded corners on spuds that support them, you can set a base base border corner rounding amount. This corner rounding setting will then be applied automatically to each spud with rounded corner support that you subsequently add.
Tip The base corner rounding setting is also automatically applied to spuds you added in the past unless you already set a custom corner rounding amount.
Even with the base setting in place, you can always change the rounded corner setting on a spud-by-spud basis.
