Screen View and Print View tabs:

You can define two sets of settings for each style: Screen View is for electronic help formats (HTML Help, WebHelp and eWriter Help), Print View is for page-style formats (PDF, Print User Manual, Word DOCX and ePUB eBooks).

You can switch between the Screen and Print View style settings in the Help+Manual editor by clicking on the Screen/Print button in the status bar at the bottom of the main program window.

Style name:

Name of the current style.

Based on style:

The "parent" style of the current style. Styles inherit all attributes that you do not explicitly change from their parent style. You can change the parent style by selecting a different style in this field.

Shortcut:

The keyboard shortcut for selecting the style. To add a shortcut just click in this field and press the key combination for the shortcut.

Add Style

Creates a new style definition.

Remove Style

Deletes the current style. If the style has any sub-styles (child styles) they will also be deleted (a warning is displayed). Not active for Help+Manual's standard styles, which cannot be deleted.

Copy Styles From...

Copies the styles definition set from another Help+Manual project.

This completely overwrites the current style definition set, replacing it with the definitions of the other project.

Font, Paragraph, Borders (Text & Paragraph Styles)

These buttons display the dialogs for formatting the Font, Paragraph and Borders & Backgrounds attributes of the current style. The dialogs are exactly the same as the standard Format Font, Format Paragraph and Format Borders & Backgrounds dialogs.

Modify Layout (Table and Image Styles)

Displays the layout settings for table styles. These settings are a subset of the normal Table Properties dialog.

Reset Style

Resets the current styles to the default settings. Always use this before defining a text-only style to make sure that you do not accidentally include paragraph or border attributes.
