I've run a classic board for years. I've had a style I liked and never changed it.

I'm trying to duplicate it in Threads. I just started playing around in my Threads control panel.

Anyone have a good visual representation to help, such as a screen shot of a board marked up identifying what is what in the control panel?

I think that the style editor has a fairly decent representation of what effects what, things are labeled and the demo style updates when you click the button... it's the best live demo availalbe...

Funny you mention that. When editing a style and I click the "Update Preview Area" nothing changes. I have to save the style, then look at my board in another open window to see the change.

I'm on IE7. I wonder if it's related to my problem here:

Maybe I should open a support ticket.

I'll get there with the style. Just need to spend more time playing in Control Panel.

More than likely related to IE

Yep, just tried it in Firefox and had no problem with the "Update Preview Area" button.

IE has always been fickle and "inventive" when it comes to how they handle standards and CSS ;\)
