CSS display issues re font size and dialog view, possibly related.

1. I applied H5 and H6 styles from my updated/renamed default stylesheet to text in the Design View. The reformatted text conformed to the Styles and Formatting display (RH8). However, in the browser view, those styles were two points larger than in the Design View. Why?

2. In investigating #1, my manager noted that the .css stylesheet, when opened in Notepad, didn't list the H5 and H6 styles. The RH8 > Styles dialog, accessed from the Project Manager by clicking on the  Style Sheets > css listing, does list H5 and H6, albeit as inherited styles.

• Are inherited styles automatically excluded from the "true" css stylesheet?
• How do I ensure that inherited styles are added to the stylesheet? (Must I duplcate and rename them?)

Hi,

If the headings are not present in your css and you edit them through the RH css editor, RoboHelp normally adds them to your style sheet. Do you use more than one style sheet and if so, have you checked all style sheets?

When you use a heading style without styling it either inline or in a css, the browser will show the default styling. To make sure this doesn't happen, make sure the styles are in your css. If editing through the css editor won't work, try adding them manually to your css:

h5{}

h6{}

You should then be able to tweak them trough the css editor.

Greet,

Willam

The styles were/are in the css. I use only a single css.

Have you checked the CSS in the source is the same as the CSS in the output?
