Copy Style

Copy Style will get all the properties of the report item's inline style and make them available into the clipboard. Inline style includes all properties of the Style class. Any style inherited from parent report item, any global styling that was applied with StyleSelectors or from external style sheets would not be copied.

Paste Style

Paste Style will apply the style that was copied using Copy Style. The style will be applied as an Inline style. This means that the report item's inline style properties will be modified to match the source item. Any global/external style/style name would not be pasted.

You can hold CTRL to select multiple report items and then use Paste Style to apply the style on all selected items.

Reset Style

If a report item's style properties were modified, clicking Reset Style will remove the inline styling. Any style inherited from parent report item, any global styling that was applied with StyleSelectors or from external style sheets would not be reset.
