Style Management

The Style Management Screen

Style Management allows you to select a style, either one of the built in styles or one you have created yourself, and set your live website to that style. It also allows you to load in styles for editing and create new styles by modifying existing styles and saving them under a new name. You have the choice of editing a style other than the one your live site is set to, therefore only displaying a style live when you're ready to.

The style of a page is divided into areas, such as the page background or header background, that can be set individually. This affords countless combinations of styles. A style is edited by selecting an area of the page, such as the main panel background, from the central menu. This takes you to a style screen, like the one below, that allows you to set the background colour, or the background image of the main panel. The same principle is applied to all areas of the page where background colours, background images, font faces, sizes and colours may be set.

Setting Background Style

The Style screens display a sample of the style you are editing and reflect any changes that you make. Below this are the tools to make your changes. To change the background colour you need only click on your colour choice on the colour box and the screen will redraw with your new colour in place. Background images are chosen using a select menu. This same principle is applied to other style areas for selecting font colours, font faces and sizes.
