What are styles?

With styles you control the appearance of elements centrally – alignment, font, paragraph settings and more (Properties → Style tab).

Each style has at most one parent style and inherits its attributes unless set itself. Unset attributes always return a default value.

Selecting a parent style.

There can be exactly one default style (checkbox Default Style). It applies to all elements without their own style.

Conditional styles are tied to a condition and created as a sub-element of a style (context menu → Create Conditional Style).

Example: red font when the field NAME has the value „FEHLER“:

Set the text colour to red (Appearance → Forecolor).
In the expression editor set the conditional expression ($F{NAME}.equals("FEHLER")).
