Theme New Style Rule

You can change the width of columns, select rows and scroll the list in both directions. When you select a row in the view, the Theme editor selection moves to the Design Wizard page and the related selector. If you have selected a property, the property is expanded and the property control in that section is selected.

You can cut, copy, paste and delete both entire rules and individual properties elsewhere in this variant, or to another variant in this or any other theme. However, you must use the Design Wizard page to create or modify rules in any other way.

Note:

The Style Rules view works only with the Design Wizard.
