Styling HTML elements

Using the Styles dropdown

The Styles dropdown in the rich text toolbar is available in both the “Full HTML” and “Flex HTML” text formats. It allows content editors to apply stylistic variations to certain HTML elements in your content by applying CSS styles to them.

To add a style, first select the HTML element you want to style, then select the style from the Style dropdown you wish to apply to it.

Note to developers

Note to developers

The list of available styles can be overridden, if desired. Note, though, that modifications to the default Flex HTML text format should be done in a ways that avoids conflicts with future updates provided by ITS. Use Drupal’s Configuration Override System to safely override these styles.
