Styles Editor

The styles editor lets you customize and add default styles for the design elements listed in About Styles.

Element	Description	Notes

Click the down arrow to select a standard color; click More Colors to specify a custom RGB value; click Default to restore the default color.	Applies to all styles except print form, state form, transition form, header, footer, and left/right sidebar styles. Can use a theme value from the SBM user workspace (form-related styles only).

Click the down arrow to select a standard color; click More Colors to specify a custom RGB value; click Default to restore the default color.	Applies to all styles.

Corner Radius	Specifies a corner radius to containers and detail controls. For print form sections, you must apply a background color for the radius to be visible on the form. For panels, the corner radius is visible when you apply a background image or the background color is different than the panel color. To use this option, the Enable HTML5 features check box must be selected. Refer to Form Options.	Applies to tab and expander containers and print form sections.

Row color, Alternate row color, Highlighted row color, Selected row color	Specifies the color for various rows in a grid-style widget. The alternate row color can differ from the row color so contiguous rows can be better identified.
