Managing SiteStyles

You can add new styles to the list of available styles, such as those you obtain from your colleagues or those you create on your own. You can also remove styles and create folders to better manage your Style view. SiteStyles are stored in folders labeled with the style name. Text styles and graphic styles are stored separately, and new text styles do not automatically transfer to a new site.

Adding a SiteStyle

You can add a style from any NetObjects Fusion style folder on your hard disk drive, CD-ROM, or LAN, and you can also download online styles. You add styles by first adding a SiteStyle Source in the Style view. A SiteStyle Source is the location where additional styles are stored. Any SiteStyle found at this location will then be available in the Style view. Warning:SiteStyles from earlier versions of NetObjects Fusion do not include all style elements available in NetObjects Fusion 8. If you import an older style, you must update the style to be compatible with the new features. For example, NetObjects Fusion version 3.0 and earlier did not have the rollover style for buttons. Thus, if your style is from version 3.0 you must assign button rollover styles before the navigation bars can display rollovers.
