Duplicate styles

Post by smajors »

I'm generating a Flare report and wondering what is considered a duplicate style?

We have similar but different styles for PDF (or print) vs HTML (web) so is that maybe we there are duplicate styles listed? For example, this is what I see in the report. The style name is different and some properties of the style should be different so is it maybe that the content using css has two styles applied?

I have not seen this error before. Having different styles for web and PDF will not produce that error. It also doesn't seem to be referencing a topic, so it's unlikely that it is bad markup in a topic (usually you will see warnings or even a failure in the build if there's a bad topic).

Maybe you have a situation where the styles are different in one medium (e.g. HTML5) but actually identical in another medium (e.g, PDF).

If you can show us the CSS for both mediums for both styles, we might be able to tell more. Or try putting in a bogus difference in one style, like a red background, and see if you still get the error.
