PROJ-880 5.4Complete this tab to identify up to four CSS style sheets — saved as text file rules — to be used at runtime when a web browser displays Process Commander forms and pages to a user associated with a portal rule that references this skin rule.
Your entries override styles in default style sheets (saved in standard text file rules). The specific style sheets and the order they are applied depends on the value of the Type field in the portal rule. See More about Skin rules.
For each field, click the magnifying glass icon () to see the Style Picker, which lists qualifying text file
rules. Use the Style Picker to preview the appearance of important styles
in a selected rule. To see a complete preview of all the styles defined
in a text file rule, use the Style Viewer rather than the Style Picker.
See About the Style
Viewer tool. C-2330
Standard style sheets containing
rtl
at the end of the name are designed to support localization in languages
such as Arabic and Hebrew that have a right-to-left text direction. Labels appear
to the left of the field that they identify.

(The auto-generated skin rule and CSS text file rules all belong to one RuleSet version and have similar names.) Clear the checkbox to enable access to these three fields. You can then modify the Desktop, Work, and Report fields, but can no longer copy or update this rule using the Branding wizard. See About the Branding wizard.

Rule |
You can define a custom CSS for your rule forms and reference it here. As a starting point, download the CSS definitions in ruleformstyles.css (which is a Final rule) and carefully modify style definitions. Upload the resulting CSS file in a text file rule. By convention, start the second key part with ruleformstyles_ (for example ruleformstyles_gaudy). This field does not control styles of harness-based rule forms. For harness-based rule forms, the Scripts and Styles tab identifies the style sheet, normally css/workform_ruleform. 5.5

When you circumstance a skin, the system creates its text files by copying the base rule's files and appending a date stamp and code string to each of the file names. For example, if you create a skin rule that uses a text file named reports_acmestandard and circumstance it, the new skin uses the text file named reports_acmestandard_20091102T201109_389.
