Properties Overview
Each element context or condition, or property set has formatting properties assigned to it to control the style for a particular usage. These properties may have been assigned by default, by styles you have applied, or by property sets (collections of property values). In addition, each element may include any number of contexts and conditions, which may assign different properties to an element depending on where it is in the document or how a particular attribute has been defined. The properties for each element, context, condition, or property set are grouped in categories in the lower area of the Arbortext Styler window. Select one of the categories from the Category list to access the properties in that category:
• Text category - Specifies formatting characteristics for any text, such as bold, italic, underline, font family, size, and color. See
