Hey everybody,
I'm new to umbraco and I'm running into a strange problem with the stylesheets.
When I create a new style property from the interface and input the css, I am not seeing that style in the Styles menu of the editor. The class will work if I manually edit the HTML from the editor, but I can't get to it from the WYSIWYG area. Does anybody have any idea why this might be happening?
Thanks

Check to be sure that you've assigned the stylesheets to TinyMCE. To do this, go to the Developer section of the umbraco user interface. Expand the Data Types section of the treeview control on the left. Click the Richtext Editor item. Put a check mark next to the related stylesheet(s) you want TinyMCE to incorporate in its interface (along with other TinyMCE options) cheers, doug.

Hi, I can't get the styles menu to work using the instructions you provided. I'm using the latest code version of CodePlex on Firefox. Before I start hacking into things, I'd like to know if I'm not the only one with this problem :) Ruben

...I want to add that the style sheet does get loaded (styles are visible in editor window), but the list itself does not get populated.

...and the classes do appear in the "Insert/edit image" dialog.

Hi, Ruben, To make styles that appear in the TinyMCE editor, you have to right-click on the stylesheet node and create a subnode. These are the styles that appear in the editor, rather than all the styles in your stylesheet. If you've done that, and set the RTE datatype to use the appropriate stylesheet(s) and they still don't show... please explain more about what you did and what you do/don't see happening. cheers, doug.

Alright, thanks, I'll try that soon. Still it's weird that those styles do show up in the Insert Image dialog.

Thanks Doug, this works. Didn't know about that. I think it's a little complicated though. Should we do something about the Insert Image dialog?

I'm having a similar problem : I create the subfolder and it shows up in the Styles but whenever I attempt to insert any code in the new css folder it dies with: Code:
Server Error in '/' Application.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
String or binary data would be truncated.
The statement has been terminated.
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.
I have been trying for about 2 hours and if I use one line at a time it sometimes saves. but mostly I just want to choke it.

Issue: style property not appearing in dropdown in tinymce
I have followed instructions from this post and did the following:
1. created a css file from Settings > Stylesheets > right clicked and created the CSS file.
2. In the developer section: Data Types > Richtext editor > selected the custom CSS file in the "Related stylesheets" section.
3. Published the page on which I am expecting the "Styles" dropdown to be populated. But the custom styles dont appear.
In my CSS, I have overridden h1, h2 styles and these are applied to the content I have but the custom styles in my CSS I have created dont appear in the Styles dropdown.
Please help.
regards,
Kevin

@kevin.angelo : This is step for step how I did it. 1. First create a substyle under your CSS like picture show below  2. Then choose the Name that is visible in the editor and alias that it's called in the CSS. I used h3 for this one. See picture below  3. Then go to Developer Section and press Data Types -> Richtext editor  4. In the Richtext editor Settings you mark ur CSS as Related stylesheets: see picture below  5. It should now work! ;)  Hope this helps Regards, Fredrik
