I am currently testing your Flexi CSS Layouts extension and so far am very excited. This could be a home run for you all!

One problem I have encountered is trying to configure different styled text for different layout sections. When I used your extension to assign text formatting to an individual area it still "inherits" from the parent even though I unchecked that in the editor.

It appears that those individual styles are still being overruled by the body font tag? I saw a "page body" button but didn't see how I could turn off it's normal Arial configuration.

I could go in an edit the styles myself through DW and make edits but that would defeat the purpose of your easy-to-use-editor.

So please tell me if I am overlooking something.

I wish you the best in finalizing this. I will be telling a lot of people about this because it is the best CSS layout editor I have seen so far.

Thanks much.

Hello Steven,

You are not overlooking anything. This was a problem in our generated CSS code. We will release an update soon that will fix it.

You can fix this from the custom css file of your layout. Inside the folder named 'includes/CSSLayouts' there is a file called 'yourLayoutName_custom.css'. Open it and move all the rules for the page body at the top of the document.

We are also thinking to add switch to disable text settings on page body.

Regards,
