CSS questions

[Crash Gordon]

Howdy,

I'm bored today so I decided to screw up my FP themes.

No, really, I'm experimenting with CSS sheets on a FP theme I don't use.
The sheets are named Color0/Color1, Graph0/Graph1, Custom, Themes (all with .css exts of course.

I believe the 0 & the 1 refer to standard colors as opposed to vivid colors?

I understand the Color and the Graph names, but where does the Custom come into play? Is that created if I make an FP change?

Same question for Theme.css.

Also I can't seem to figure out which pages are using which sheets...should that be visible in page styles? The meta name shows me only the theme the page is supposed to be using.

Sorry for newbieness on CSS...but that's why I'm trying to blow up this machine today!

Theme css files & what they are used for:
graph0.css - Normal Graphics Selections / Changes to theme (from .elm file)
graph1.css - Active Graphics Selections / Changes to theme (from .elm file)
color0.css - Normal Color Selections / Changes to theme (from .elm file)
color1.css - Active Color Selections / Changes to theme (from .elm file)
theme.css - Font Selections to theme
custom.css - Created only if you modify a theme, collects Changes to above & any new styles
themename1111.css - Created only if you Apply theme using css - combines All of above

All of above are automatically changed by FP if you modify your theme (& when you Recalc Hyperlinks) so your All your edits to these
css files will be lost (FP rereads the original theme .elm file).

Stefan,

COOL THAT"S WHAT I WANTED TO KNOW !! Can you see my tiny brain synapses (little sparks and lightbulbs) finally connecting from where you are?

Now it makes sense.
It now seems to me it'd be easier to start with CSS from scratch rather than reverse engineer this stuff for learning purposes.

THANKS !!
