Dragging me around by the nose tends not to get my
co-operation!
1] That is the code I would expect to see in RH7. Ben may not
be looking in as don't forget we are not in Israel. I believe you
are.
2] "Well, at least from that, we now earned your description
of RH7 vs. RH8 and their motivations. " Egh? What are you getting
at here?
3] "I mean, is it really sufficient that just because it is
within the CSS, it makes it perfectly acceptable?" Writing a class
of a style rather than writing a second style is a perfectly valid
method.
4] My point with Word was that you can apply paragraph
styles, character styles and inline styling. Purists will argue the
latter should not be used. Sometimes it is more important to get
the job done and use an inline style rather than stopping to create
an inline style.
5] So in conclusion, I understand that the following
definition, generated by RH7:
LI.P {
font-size: 12.0pt;
}
is saying: "for the HTML element, LI, prepare a class of type
P, and this is what will be applied whenever you apply a default
list using one of the toolbar buttons (1-2-3) or bullets on top of
a 'Normal' text." And similarly for LI.Hx.
Yes.
6] Isn't there instead an abbreviated CSS way of doing this
that avoids the duplication of attribute definitions and instead
uses some sort of inheritance that allows LI.P to inherit the font
size from P? I would have thought it would inherit but Adobe have
written it that way so I guess there is a reason. Maybe there has
to be at least one definition for a style to work, I don't know,
just guessing. Does it matter? You and I are not going to change
the way it works. You can always edit the style sheet using another
tool if you don't like RH's ways. I have done up to now. For RH8,
first glances indicate I might use the built in editor, I need to
look at it more.
