l Single line comments (//...) are not added to the compiled .css file, whereas multi-
line comments (/* ... */) are maintained. Multi-line comments should be added within
the brackets of the definition they apply to, to make sure they appear in the correct
place in the compiled css.
Styling text and paragraphs
There are numerous ways to format text in a template. You can apply a certain font, make text
bold, transform it to uppercase, center it, color it, etc.
This topic explains how to apply local formatting to text. It is recommended though, to format
text using style sheets; see "Styling and formatting" on page785 and "Styling templates with
CSS files" on page786.
Tip
With the Copy fit feature, text can automatically be scaled to the available space in a Box
or Div. See "Copy Fit" on page802.
Formatting text and paragraphs locally
An intuitive way of formatting text locally is by using the toolbar buttons: select some text, or an
element that contains text (see: "Selecting an element" on page669) and click one of the
toolbar buttons to make it bold, center it, create a numbered or bulleted list, etc.
Tip
To quickly change a paragraph into a Heading, place the cursor inside of it, or select the
paragraph (see: "Selecting an element" on page669). Then select the appropriate
element, either on the Format menu, or from the 'Element type' drop-down on the toolbar.
More local formatting options are available in the Formatting dialogs; see below.
