The element

Description

Preview Window

Displays a list of library styles.

The dialog has two preview windows, in which they can simultaneously display lists of styles of two different libraries. Only one window can be active — it is selected with a frame. To activate a window, click it.

Style lists have a treelike structure, with sections, subsections etc. containing styles. The nesting level of sections is unlimited. All objects of the tree are automatically sorted by names inside each section.
