Cross references and styles again

Post by Christine »

We've got a problem with cross references inserted somewhere in text (not at the end of a paragraph):
In Word output the style of the cross reference (defined in the style sheet for medium "print) is picked up and used til the end of the paragraph.

In the flare source the cross reference is formatted correctly, with start and end tag. In non-print output the style is used correctly. I guess that the end tag of the cross reference is lost when converting to printed output.
Have I got something wrong or is this a Flare bug?

In the meantime we solved the problem. It is no bug, but a stylesheet problem: :oops:

The problem is not the <xref>-style, but the style of the surrounding paragraph.
The font properties (font familiy, color, etc.) of the concerning paragraphs (<p>, <li>, etc.) have to be set properly. You may not leave these properties as "not set".
With a correct set of font properties for the paragraphs the style for a cross reference works properly.
