Style changes don't affect appearance

Post by Sharpras »

I change the font size of a p.footnote paragraph style with the Medium set to Non-print. Save. Look at the Flare editor (also set to Medium=Non-print) and the changes don't appear. :( I can force them to appear in the editor for each topic by clicking Default medium, and then toggle back to Non-print Medium. Now it displays correctly. :) But I can't do that for all 174 topics. :(

Using Win 7 and Flare 7,
Any ideas?
I have tried compiling. No difference.
The topics properties list the same stylesheet that I'm editing.

In my experience, sometimes closing and reopening Flare fixes this.

Thanks, whunter.
That fixed it; fonts are the correct size that match the style sheet.

You can also press F5 when viewing a topic in WYSIWYG mode -- that should force it to refresh, which forces it to reload the stylesheet. I haven't had to do that in awhile, so it might be I had to do that if I hadn't saved the topic recently but made changes to the stylesheet in the meantime. So save the topic then press F5 would probably be the more accurate sequence.
