3 assumptions

assumption #1

many graphic designers

know the basics of css.

assumption #2

in the future, most

graphic designers will

know some css.

assumption #3

90% of text style features

we use also exist in css.

feature request

provide a "code view"

in the styles GUI.

• does define "underline"• does not define size• does not define typeface

is inherited from defaultstyle

(but how can we know?)

let’s define another font

indeed, the FONT is defined.

but how can we undefine it?

there’s no GUI for that.

a proposal

#1: we can see what’s defined

#2: we can undefine!

maybe also:

bring the style syntax

closer to CSS.

we’re doing some CSS conversion anyway:

• HTML import / export

• EPUB export

thanx ;)
