Edit Styles dialog box

(list box)

Displays the names of all applicable styles that have the class name that was selected on the Formatting panel. If more than one style is listed, select the one you want to edit.

Styles that have the same class name but are not applicable to the current context are not listed. For example, suppose you have the following styles in the document’s style sheet:

.groovy { color: blue }
td.groovy { color: red }
th.groovy { color: orange }

If the insertion point is inside an ordinary table cell, the list box will list .groovy and td.groovy but not th.groovy, since the last is not applicable to the current context. On the other hand, if the insertion point is inside a header cell, the list box will list .groovy and th.groovy but not td.groovy.

Location

Displays the location of the selected style. If the style is located in an external style sheet, the style sheet’s path is displayed.

Edit button

Opens the Add/Modify Style dialog box for the selected style.
