Thanks for that, however, the properties pane soesn't give the end user the drop down list of styles with a graphical representation of the style. So isn't very user friendly to expect our clients to remeber class names off by heart.

 

Also I understand about the inline span... but if the whole of an element is selected then why not apply the style to the blocck rather than add an unrequired span.

 

or conversly do as you say select the tag in the status footer and then expect using the class selector drop down that it would apply to the tag you just selected????

 

having moved from 5.3 to 6.6, the functionality we are after existed in the previous version (eg span if only part of an element selected, class on the block level element if all of that element selected).... so not sure why it has been removed in the later version?

 

Hence we were wondering if it was an oversite?
