CSS Editor

By default, external CSS style sheets open in the CSS Editor. You can add styles either by typing style rules directly into the markup, or by selecting options from the Style Builder dialog box, which automatically generates style rules and inserts their syntax into your document.

Select Options from the Tools menu to set default options for the CSS Editor.
