17. Styling documents

The Format menu enables you to change the appearance of your documents using cascading style sheets

(CSS)

17.1. Applying/Removing a theme

Amaya provides by default two different themes (Classic, Modern) that allow you to style the current

document.

To change the document presentation with a theme:

• Select Classic or Modern in the theme list proposed by the Style tool,

• or select Classic or Modern in the Format/Theme submenu.

To remove the current theme:

• Select No theme in the theme list proposed by the Style tool,

• or select No theme in the Format/Theme submenu.

All these changes can be undone (Edit/Undo or Ctrl-z).

When a theme is applied to a document, Amaya generates a style element whose content comes from

Amaya/config/Classic.css or Amaya/config/Modern.css files. You can create your own

Classic.css and Modern.css files in the AmayaHome directory. If you do so, Amaya will use them

instead of default config files.

17.2. Applying specific style

Some styles properties like color, background color, font, alignment, line spacing, or indent may be

applied to a piece of text or to a whole element using either the Style tool or one of the submenus of the

Format menu.

To apply a specific style:

1. Select a piece of text or an element.

To select an element, click within the element, then use the F2 key until the bottom line of the

window displays the type of the element in the first position. You can also use the structure

view to select an element.

2. Choose the right entry within the Style tool or in the Format menu.

The Style tool provides two buttons for for each color you may set (the text color and the

background color). The first button allows you to apply its current color; the second button

allows you to choose another color and to apply it.

To remove a specific style:

• The Style tool does not allow you to remove specific style. You have to use the No color or

Default entries of the Format submenus.

• In the Advanced editing profile, you can directly edit the attribute style.

17.3. Associating a class to an element

All values available for the class attribute in the document are listed in the Apply class tool.

To apply a class to an element:
