Renaming a snippet
To rename a snippet, right-click it on the Resources pane in the Snippets folder and select
Rename.
If you rename a snippet that was inserted into a section as shared content, you need to update
the reference to the snippet manually:
1. Open the section in which the snippet is used.
2. Switch to Source view.
3. Look for the <article> element in the HTML and replace the old snippet name with the
new name in the source attribute.
Translating a snippet
Snippets in a multilingual template get translated at the moment they are inserted in the output,
if the text is tagged for translation. For more information see "Translating templates" on
page907 and "Tagging text in snippets" on page910.
Styling and formatting
In the Designer you have everything at hand to make your templates look good: colors, fonts
and all the tools to position, align and embellish elements in your designs. This topic informs
about the ways to style a template.
Local formatting versus style sheets
There are in general two ways to style elements:
l
Using local formatting. Local formatting means styling an element directly, using a
toolbar button or one of the formatting dialogs.
l
Using Cascading Style Sheets (CSS). Style sheets can determine the appearance of
individual elements, as well as the appearance of elements that have the same class or
HTML tag.
