I have modified the "cssclass" section in common.config to reflect a number of classes I have defined in my own .css file.

 

The class names are showing up in the css class dropdown and show the appropriate fonts/color/size etc attributes combinations defined by the classes. All looks good so far. At least the classes are recognized in the dropdown.

 

I select some text in the edit window and apply one of my classes from the dropdown. They have no effect. I view the html code and it shows the html I desired around my selected text. e.g.:   <span class="myclass">Selected Text</span>

  

How do I assure that my styles included in my webpage's .css file are recognized inside the edit window as they are in the dropdown?

 

Later in the day... FOUND THE ANSWER:  editor.EditorWysiwygModeCss = "somewhere/MyStyles.css"

 

Sorry I punted too soon. Had assumed that since the dropdown recognized the styles so would the editor.
