All stylesheets used by the currently active file are listed in the stylesheet's section on the far right. Quickly turn the use of a particular leaf on and off by tapping the apple of your eye symbol to the right of the leaf name. Any changes you have made to the stylesheet can be saved to your computer by pressing the Store key at the bottom right of the right -hand side of the record for each page in the listing.

Starting with Firefox 40, the Stylesheet area also contains a shortcut to open the stylesheet in a new tabs. To the right is the editing area. Here you can find the sources for the chosen stylesheet for reading and editing.

If you are happy with your changes, you can store a copy on your local hard drive by pressing the Store icon in the sheet's record in the stylesheet area. Note that the text box provides line numbers and parentheses to make it easy to view your Cssss. Style editors deminish stylesheets that they recognize without affecting the originals.

On the right side, the Style Editor shows a side bar if the actual page contains @media styles. This page list contains the list of available policies and a hyperlink to the line of the page in which the policy is located.

To access this policy on the page, click an element. Starting with Firefox 46, if an @media policy contains a display area in a requirement, it is made clickable: Click on it and then resize the display to that area using the Responsive Design View: A new stylesheet can be created by pressing the New icon on the taskbar.

A stylesheet can be loaded from the hard drive and added to the page by pressing the Import pushbutton. Those utilities create custom style guides from a more rich and meaningful set of code.

When you do this, it is not so useful to be able to see and manipulate the created style sheet, because the coding you are maintaining is the precompiler syntax and not the created style sheet. So, you need to modify the created style sheet and then find out how to apply it back to the initial resource yourself.

Sourcemaps allow the tool to view and manipulate data in the initial format by using the initial format from the created CCS. Firefox 29 and later allows the style editor to read and write style cards from sources. That means, for example, if you use Sass, the Style Editor will show you Sass images and allow you to manipulate them instead of the style sheet from them: CSS:

To make this work, you must: use a pre-processor based on source map revision 3. If you now activate "Show source " in the Style Editor preferences, the hyperlinks next to the CSS rule in the rule editor refer to the source in the Style Editor.

Firefox 35 or higher displays the originals by default. Firefox 35 or higher displays the originals by default. 4. They can also modify the originals in the Style Editor and see the results immediately on the page. Initially, configure your pre-processor to monitor the initial resource and regenerate the CSS whenever the resource changes.

Then, in the Style Editor, store the orginal resource by pressing the "Save" icon next to the filename and storing it over the orginal filename. If you now make changes to the style in the Style Editor, the style sheet is generated again and you can see the changes immediately.

The standard links for the code Editor are listed in this workbook. You can use Vim, Emacs, or Sublime Text keyboard maps instead in the Edit Preferences section of the Development Tool Preferences dialog. In this case, the chosen binding is used for all development utilities that use the resourceditor.

In order for the changes to take effect, you must open the Notepad again. Starting with Firefox 33, the setting for encryption is displayed in the Notepad Preferences section of the Development Tool Preferences, and you can configure it there instead of about:config.
