12:31 PM Tom_L: yeah iirc doesn't the designer have an option for that?
12:31 PM Tom_L: maybe not.. i haven't been in that for a bit
12:31 PM JT-Cave: so the style is applied to all children in that frame with > *
12:31 PM rdtsc-w: get the feeling that it would take a long time to learn all of the designer's ins-and-outs

12:31 PM Tom_L: saves a few edits
