    Lookup Wrong Stylesheets

    OK, it's late at night.... been a long day and my head's work out.

    Maybe someone can help with this...

    1) I've imported a site directly from V7 to v11... is that safe, or should I have imported to v8, v9, v10 then v11? (I'm having a few unexpected errors each day.... dump files created each time)

    2) I've built a nice template and am in the process of editing the 'Mini best seller Layout'. when I right click on a class tag and 'lookup in stylesheet' it gives me a few varied shylesheets

    example...

    if I lookup the "text_product_small_info_heading" class it takes me to 'Premier theme' stylesheet.

    a few lines later, I lookup "product_image_cost" and it takes me to the 'corporation theme' stylesheet.

    If I lookup "text_product_small_info_price", it takes me to the 'Bobcat theme' stylesheet.

    finally the "text_product_small_info" class takes me to 'Premier theme' once again.

    If I edit any of these classes they do not affect my layout. I have to navigate to a fragment and lookup a "subheading" class (on my H1 tag) and this takes me directly to 'Actinic Core Styles' stylesheet. And here I can edit all the above stylesheets (product_image_cost, text_product_small_info_price, etc) and they will now affect the layout.

    So it seems when I want to edit stylesheets, V11 is pointing me to the wrong ones...!



    Does anyone have any ideas with this??

    Thanks in advance.

    This is a common problem, been around for years, the lookup facility although very useful at times is totally useless at others. Its great for looking up your own class names which you can always make unique. Sadly with the actinic css, its not as good as it could be, both in naming and design.

    Only way round it is to delete all the css out of the unused stylesheets, so it cannot lookup within them. This is a poor area of the software IMO, one that needs an operation, not persistent bandaging. But again its time versus reward and tough to balance.

      This is amazingly annoying when working in the design tab. Even removing the blocks of imported stylesheets at the bottom of the main does not resolve.

      Could the filter be set to search the actinic.css first and then progress to any imported stylesheets second?
