Configuration files Style Configuration



This configuration file section pre-defines a style-list.

Style-list Definition Section: \STYLELIST{....}

This section presents the style-list definitions accessible in corresponding XQuad menus. The definition of the style-list appears between the opening bracket "{" and corresponding closing bracket "}". Each element from the style-list is defined as described below.

Style Definition Section: \STYLEX{...}

This section defines style X in the XQuad styles-base. A style's definition appears between the opening bracket "{" and closing bracket "}". Parameters of a style definition are:

  1. \FONT{font name}: font name attached to a particular style.
     
  2. \COLORX: color name attached to a particular style.
     
  3. the font size attached to a particular style.
     
  4. \NAME{style name}: style name as it appears in XQuad.
     
  5. \WIDTH{expansion}: the horizontal expansion of this style's font (1 indicates the font is normal size, 1.5 indicates it is one and a half times bigger than its normal size.)
     
  6. \LOCK locks a style defined in XQuad's style base so that it cannot be deleted from the 'style composition' dialog box.
     
  7. \HIDE hides the defined style so that it does not appear in XQuad style lists.
