Using Stylesheets
 

What is a Stylesheet?

A Stylesheet is basically a template that you use to customize the look of your quiz or survey. There is a Stylesheet panel in ViewletACE that allows you to create a Stylesheet that defines properties of certain objects. For example, you can set the background color of your slide, the font type used for your question, your answer choices, etc. You can apply then apply the Stylesheet to all of your slides in a project or to a selected number of slides. To begin, select the “Stylesheet” icon in the Main Toolbar.

Where are the Stylesheets stored?

When you create a new Stylesheet, they are automatically stored in the ViewletACE library folder under C:\ProgramFiles\Qarbon\ViewletACE 2006. The list of Stylesheets that you create will be displayed when you select the Stylesheets drop down menu in the Stylesheet panel. ViewletACE also provides you with a default Stylesheet.

Which object properties can be defined using Stylesheets?

You can set properties of various objects in a Stylesheet. Objects include slides, messages (Balloons, Notes, Text Boxes), Question Text, Question Choice Text, Question Row Text, Question Column Text and Question Choice (i.e. Radio Buttons Style, Combo Box Style, Ratings Style, etc). We expect to include more objects in the future.

 Our company must standardize on a Corporate Stylesheet and we have multiple authors. How can we all use the same Stylesheet? Can Stylesheets be imported?

After you create the Corporate Stylesheet, you can send it to all the authors via email, disk, etc. Have the authors copy the file into the ViewletACE library folder on their computer where ViewletACE is installed. When they run ViewletACE, they will be able to view this Stylesheet from the drop-down menu in the Stylesheet panel and will be able to apply it to their projects.
