Setting Text properties
The Text set of the CSS Inspector lets you define spacing, case, and alignment properties for the selected style. For more information on units, see About relative, absolute, and percentage units.
To edit the text spacing, case, and alignment properties of a style: - Select a style in the CSS Editor, and click the Text Properties
set. - To set the horizontal alignment, choose an option from the Text Alignment menu.
- To use small caps, choose Small Caps from the Font Variant menu.
- To specify inheritance, choose Inherit from the Font Variant menu.
