Help, how to apply multiple style to a component

In HTML we can write class="styleA styleB" to apply multiple
style, but it's not allowed in flex3.
So is there a way to walk around? like
.styleB{
//include styleA
}

You have to combine all songs into one file by using software, for example Audacity.

  • How to apply multiple styles for nested tags in XML?

    Say you import this XML into InDesign:
    <Root>
      <strong>
        <em>Bolded and Italicized</em>
      </strong>
    </Root>
    And you have two character styles, bold and italics, to map to strong and em tags respectively.
    You will see that the text appears italicized not bolded and italicized as expected. Generally, only the innermost tag will get the style and will overwrite its parent styles.
    Notice the XML is generated dynamically and tags order is not enforced. Also, there's an additional underline tag that can be nested with these two.
    So far I have tried to use GREP styles (with paragraph styles), but these do not have effect in the XML tags.
    Other possible options not tried yet:
    Create new tags for every formatting combination. Not what I really want because I could en up with a lot of tags each one with a corresponding styles.
    Create InDesign XML rules to apply character styles automatically based on the tags
    Use character styles in the XML with the aid namespace referencing InDesign styles. Will this really work?
    What do you suggest to go for? See any other option?
    Thank you in advance.

    I'd say that you should create tags not for appearances, but for semantic content. Specifying formatting styles in your XML betrays your lack of familiarity with the format, because the last thing you'd want to do would be to use HTML markup in the middle of your XML. If you have content that's supposed to be both bolface and oblique - say, a warning - then it's marked up as
    <warning>Never refer directly to formatting in your XML markup, only to content types!</warning>
    If I had a document that was written in the style you suggest - one with lots of overlapping local formatting - I'd look at developing a better style guide that told the writers that doing so would be bad form. Because, you know, many of the writers I deal with are addicted to forms of emphasis that do nothing useful whatsover for their readership - they only serve to overemphasize the authorial voice of the writers.
    Maybe you could tell us why you need these overlapping forms of styling, and we could suggest other InDesign formatting tools (like line styles or nested styles) that would help you get the appearance you want without crowding styling markup into your XML - where, strictly speaking, it doesn't really belong.

  • How to set multiple styles on a single component in flex ?

    Hi ,
    I would like to know how to set multiple styles on a single component in flex.
    Can anyone give me an example as to how to set multiple styles for a single component ?

    Hi tuliptaurus,
    You can setStyleName property for chnaging the external css dynamically by using the setStyle() method ...
    btn.setStyle("styleName","blendButtonSkinOther");
    You can change the external css by using the styleaName property with setStyle method..the line in blue..where blendButtonSkinOther is another css class..
    blendButtonSkin {
        fontFamily: Arial;
        fontSize: 11;
        color: #F1F1F1;
        textRollOverColor: #F1F1F1;

  • How to apply different styles to multiple spry accordian panels?

    Hi all,
    I have a website that I'm building that has multiple spry accordian features on it.
    I am trying to apply different styles to each accordian. A problem arises when I try to place an accordian within another accordian.
    I have styled two different background images for two of the accordians for the styles (AccordionPanelTab, AccordionPanelTabHover and AccordionPanelOpen AccordionPanelTabHover) which work fine.
    When I try and place an accordian within another accordian the background image for this accordian for the styles (AccordionPanelTab and AccordionPanelOpen AccordionPanelTabHover) has the different style applyed that I stated in the accordion.css file, however the style (AccordionPanelTabHover) has the same style as the accordian it is within even though in the accordion.css file I stated a different background image.
    I hope all this makes sence below is my source and CSS Code.
    I appriciate any help that can be given to help resolve this issue I am running in too.

    Okay guys,
    I figured it out, if anyone was having the same problem as me and looking on this thread for the answer, here it is.
    Firstly if you're wanting to seperatly style two or more Spry Accordions that are not within each other e.g.
    <div id="Accordion1" class="Accordion" tabindex="0">
      <div class="AccordionPanel">
        <div class="AccordionPanelTab">Label 1</div>
        <div class="AccordionPanelContent">
       <p>Content Goes Here </p>
    </div><!-- end #Accordion1 Content -->
      </div><!-- end #Accordion1 .AccordionPanel -->
    </div><!-- end #Accordion1 -->
    <div id="Accordion2" class="Accordion" tabindex="0">
      <div class="AccordionPanel">
        <div class="AccordionPanelTab">Label 1</div>
        <div class="AccordionPanelContent">
       <p>Content Goes Here </p>
    </div><!-- end #Accordion2 Content -->
      </div><!-- end #Accordion2 .AccordionPanel -->
    </div><!-- end #Accordion2 -->
    You don't have to do this, as long as you have seperate ID's for the divs (which dreamweaver automatically does anyway) you'll be fine.
    However if for some reason you want to put one accordion inside another like I did e.g.
    <div id="Accordion1" class="Accordion" tabindex="0">
      <div class="AccordionPanel">
        <div class="AccordionPanelTab">Label 1</div>
        <div class="AccordionPanelContent">
       <p>Content Goes Here </p>
    <div id="Accordion2" class="Accordion" tabindex="0">
      <div class="AccordionPanel">
        <div class="AccordionPanelTab">Label 1</div>
        <div class="AccordionPanelContent">
       <p>Content Goes Here </p>
    </div><!-- end #Accordion2 Content -->
      </div><!-- end #Accordion2 .AccordionPanel -->
    </div><!-- end #Accordion2 -->
    </div><!-- end #Accordion1 Content -->
      </div><!-- end #Accordion1 .AccordionPanel -->
    </div><!-- end #Accordion1 -->
    Too style Accordian 1 & 2 so their tabs both have different backgrounds and Hover background when the content panel is open and closed you have to style it in the CSS they following way;
    CSS
    #Accordion1  .AccordionPanelTab {
    height:75px;
    width:285px;
    background:url(../images/package_spry_tab_bg.png);}
    #Accordion1 .AccordionPanelTabHover,
    #Accordion1 .AccordionPanelOpen .AccordionPanelTabHover {
    height:75px;
    width:285px;
    background:url(../images/package_spry_tab_bg_RO.png);}
    #Accordion2  .AccordionPanelTab {
    height:44px;
    width:469px;
    background:url(../images/packages_spry.png);}
    #Accordion2 .AccordionPanelClosed .AccordionPanelTabHover,
    #Accordion2 .AccordionPanelOpen .AccordionPanelTabHover {
    height:44px;
    width:469px;
    background:url(../images/packages_spry_ro.png);}
    Normally when styling two seperate spry accordions you can just use the following code
    #Accordion1  .AccordionPanelTab {
    height:75px;
    width:285px;
    background:url(../images/package_spry_tab_bg.png);}
    #Accordion1 .AccordionPanelTabHover,
    #Accordion1 .AccordionPanelOpen .AccordionPanelTabHover {
    height:75px;
    width:285px;
    background:url(../images/package_spry_tab_bg_RO.png);}
    The only difference with styling a Spry accordion within another to ensure they have different hover backgrounds when the content panel is open and closed is ".AccordionPanelClosed".
    Hope this helped anyone who was having the same issue I was.

  • How to apply different styles to multiple spry collapsible panels?

    Hello every.
    I would really appreciate some help with this problem I am coming up against.
    I am creating a website which has multiple Spry collapsible panels in it. I applied the styles I wanted for the first Spry collapsible panel I did in the styles panel with no problems what so ever.
    However when I go to apply the styles I want for my second and every other Spry collapsible panel, when I applied the style I wanted it changed the first panel I did. I’ve tried giving all my collapsible panels different Div ID’s but no luck. I just can’t seem to apply different styles to each of my collapsible panels.
    Can someone please advise me how to do this?
    Thank you in advance for your help.
    Kind regards
    Elliot

    I've figured the most of it out.
    By giving the Spry Collapsible Panel that you want to style differently a separate ID and class and then duplicating the original Spry Collapsible Panel style in the CSS style panel on the right and renaming them the same name as the panel you want to style differently it will allow you to style it differently to all the other panels apart from the Hover.
    I've tried everything! Below is the code I'm using for the two Collapsible Panels I want to style Differently.
    I only want to have different Tab backgrounds and Hover backgrounds
    1st Spry CollapsiblePanel
    Code:
    <div id="CollapsiblePanel1" class="CollapsiblePanel">
        <div class="CollapsiblePanelTab" tabindex="0">Tab</div>
        <div class="CollapsiblePanelContent">Content</div>
    CSS Style
    .CollapsiblePanelTab
    .CollapsiblePanelTabHover, .CollapsiblePanelOpen .CollapsiblePanelTabHover
    2nd Spry CollapsiblePanel
    Code:
    <div id="CollapsiblePanel2" class="CollapsiblePanel2">
      <div class="CollapsiblePanel2Tab" tabindex="0">Tab</div>
      <div class="CollapsiblePanel2Content">Content</div>
    </div>
    .CollapsiblePanel2Tab
    .CollapsiblePanel2TabHover, .CollapsiblePanelOpen .CollapsiblePanel2TabHover
    As I said the Tab works both I have two seperate background images for the Tabs but I can only seem to have one background for the hover.
    Has anyone any ideas on how to get around this?
    Kind regards
    Elliot

  • How to apply multiple paragraph styles to one sentence?

    I'm using paragraph styles but is not helpful because I'm trying to apply 2 different styles within the same sentence which is not working.
    To make it work I select the sentence, apply the style, for instance "xfont-regular" then I select the word within the sentence that I want it to have a different style and I choose from the font list maybe italic so that it looks "something like this"
    Obviously by doing this, I'm loosing all the benefits of using p styles and of course it's so time consuming. Is there any way to break the sentence, keeping it in the same line, so that I can apply different styles to it? and still keep the benefits of just going to the styles and make the changes to the whole document that have that style applied.
    Thank you

    As Diane King mentioned, nested character styles may work for your need. Her example was an initial dropped capital (multi-line first one or several letters of a paragraph.) Dropped caps are a specific type of nested style - always the first one or more characters in a paragraph, two or more lines high.
    To use the general kind of nested style, you need to be able to identify the word or words within the paragraph that gets the nested character style. For example, the third word, or the first two words after the first semi-colon. If there is no pattern of word(s) that can be identified by position or sequence, it's possible that a GREP style can be used to find a common pattern of characters and apply a character style to it, for example a telephone number, date, or currency amount that's identified by a dollar sign, pound, or yuan.
    Search InDesign Help and Google for "InDesign nested style," "InDesign grep style," and similar terms (without quotes) for details. There have been many discussions of GREP on this forum.

  • How to apply different styles to Portlets on the same Portal page?

    How do you apply different styles to Portlets on the same Portal page?
    I'm new to this kind of thing, but understand that something called "cascading style sheets" can help here?
    What are these, how do you use them, and can you make different Portlets (all types - PL/SQL, Java, Applications, etc) on the same Portal page have different styles assigned?
    Thanks!

    Jeff,
    Apply Oracle Portal styles at the region level. Your portlets within each region will inherit the style defined for the region.

  • How to set multiple styles on a tree component?

    Hi. I really need help...i wanted to know hot do i set multiple styles on e tree component using actionscript2.0...i need to change color, font size and font weight...Thanks for the help in advance

    You can use treeInstanceName.setStyle("stylename",value) to set individual properties, or you can create a CSSStyleDeclaration object and incorporate each of the new style values into this one object and then apply the object to the component.

  • How to apply CSS style values to h:messages ?

    Hi Folks,
    I'm quite new to JSF development. What I'm currently trying to do, is to apply a CSS style for a <h:messages> tag:
    <h:messages globalOnly="true" style="color: red;" layout="table" />Unfortunately the style "color: red;" is not being applied to the generated HTML table (or list):
    <table>
       <tr>
          <td>My Error Message!</td>
       </tr>
    </table>But I assume the generated HTML should rather look something like this:
    <table style="color: red;">
       <tr>
          <td>My Error Message!</td>
       </tr>
    </table>I'm using MyFaces 1.1.3 with Tomcat 5.5. Is this maybe a bug in MyFaces?

  • How to apply Layer Styles?

    I'd like to apply do an "Add Layer Style"/"Stroke" on the active document layer. I can't find any more documentation on how to do this than:
    applyStyle (styleName)
    string Applies the specified style to the
    layer.
    Note: You must use a style from
    the Styles list in the Layer
    Style dialog.
    What would the styleName string be for a stroke? How would I specify color, size, and "position"?
    Frankly, I'm not even sure this is the right command... Thanks.

    Hello fellow members,
    I am a beginner on photoshop and was after a specific action. I want to create a photo that has been taken in colour, convert it to black and white, but have one specific item in the picture in colour eg a bunch of flowers or lips or eyes. I have been told it is something to do with layers, but this is not helpful to me. Can anyone help with some (simple) instructions as to how I can acheive this.
    Thanks, anita

  • How to apply multiple automator workflows to one file

    Hi everyone,
    I've set up a few workflow applications to automate the process of making packshots from PDF files. The way those roughly work is they create a temporary copy in a folder, open a Photoshop droplet that executes all the actions on the file, and then save the finished product in a "finished" folder.
    However, we frequently need to deliver multiple packshots made from the same file. I was asked to make one automator app that allowed us to drop the PDF version on it, resulting in the multiple types of packshots in the "finished" folder, together with the original PDF.
    The way I have this set up right now is as follows:
    1) Copy the original PDF file to the "finished" folder
    2) Execute the first automator app
    3) Execute the second automator app
    This seems simple enough, and does work in 10.6.8. When I try it on a different computer in our studio though, with 10.7 installed, I get various errors:
    - Sometimes it says an error occured within one of the automator apps, while the app works fine when running it seperately (on all computers).
    - Sometimes it says something like "An error occurred while converting the data" when moving on from the first application to the second application
    - Sometimes I'll get an error message in the log, saying:
    *** -[_NSArrayl objectAtIndex:]: index 0 beyond bounds for empty array
    What I got from this is that it's actually not getting the right input it requires (or not getting any input, since it's an empty array). However, the previous task is set to "return the task input" (our systems are Dutch so excuse me for any discrepancies in translations please), and the resulting output that I get seems to be what I want the next automator application to use. Below is a screenshot of the error message:
    What I've tried:
    - I read somewhere that the newer versions of Automator require the action "Retrieve selected finder items" between them. I've tried using this in various ways (between all other actions/tasks, only before the second application to be run and before both applications to be run), but with no success. The problem I have with these is that, during the applications, it moves the files around, thus apparently selecting those folders as well.
    - Building an entirely new workflow on the newer system
    - Using "Start application" instead of "Execute Automator workflow". This results in Automator saying that it did execute the workflow while nothing happened.
    - Using "Ignore input" for the second application. This also results in Automator saying that it executed the workflow while nothing happened.
    So right now, I'm pretty stumped as to how to get this combination of apps to work in 10.7. Any solutions or workarounds are most welcome.
    Thanks in advance!

    Yes, angelanna. You can merge or split your video file via FCP sequence.
    ahaah, maybe I think angelanna would like to get the resulting file with MTS format because he mentioned “No need to be compressed”. Are you asking for this, angelanna?
    If so, a simple MTS files managing and editing tool  is needed. Maybe you can have a try the Mac version of Aunsoft Final Mate for managing HD camcorder footages. I just downloaded its free trial version and it offers a simple way of garping footages directly  from camcorder. And also it provides a attractive feature to join flawlessly and split accurately native MTS files for video file output with original MTS format.
    Maybe this is the tool cwhich an help you out, angelanna.
    Enjoy your video.

  • How to apply multiple effects on one clip

    Here's a simple question, so I guess there's got to be a simple solution. Is it possible to have more than just one effect on one clip? If yes, how can I do that? I've searched the iMovie help, but it didn't give me any answer.

    No, you cannot apply more than one effect at a time in iMovie '09.
    However, you can always adjust Video Levels, Exposure, Brightness, Contrast, Saturation, etc. in Inspector.

  • How to apply multiple actions on a single file in one go to generate multiple watermarked pdfs?

    usually i need to create many watermarked datasheets for different customers using a single base pdf. currently i run individual actions for individual customers on the same file which means i have to runs 10s of individual actions every time i have  new source file. can i make a single action or a script which will take a single source file, run multiple actions(~15-20) for watermarks and save these files separately? basically what i need is instead of running many individual actions i run a single action/script to make it automatic. if yes, how to do so?

    Hi Monte,
    You can achieve this by assigning a secondary extension to another button, but this might not be what you want, so if you can elaborate a little further as to what you want exactly I can help you with putting together a solution
    Cheers,
    David Trad.

  • How to apply multiple saved headings/footers to a document?

    Good afternoon!
    I hope this 1) isn't a duplicate question (I searched for similar problems before posting) and 2) isn't the case of stupid human error I suspect it is.
    Basically, I've created and saved five or six different header/footers that I need to apply to a document. After opening my document, I follow the following steps:
    1. Document -> Header & Footer -> Add -> Apply first saved header
    2. Save document
    3. Document -> Header & Footer -> Add -> Click "Add New" -> Apply second saved header
    At the point where I choose the second saved header, the header I applied first disappears in the preview window, and as soon as I apply the second saved header, it overwrites the first header entirely rather than coexisting with it on the page.
    Is there a way to make multiple saved headers/footers exist simultaneously in a single document? I know you can add new headers/footers by hand to a document with existing headers/footers as described in the Acrobat Help File, but I have scores of documents to apply these to, so I wanted to use saved settings together with a batch job.
    I hope that's all clear, but please let me know if there's any confusion as to what I've done/need to do.
    Thank you so much in advance for your assistance.
    JMW
    P.S.
    All PDFs were created using Adobe Acrobat/Distiller 8.0 and Framemaker 9.0 on Windows XP SP4.

    Bon Dias,
    If the values for Top, Bottom, Left, and Right are the same in the Margin pane of each saved setting's "Add Header and Footer" dialog you may want to consider making each saved setting's Margin setup different.
    Be well...
