Style context modifier

A style context is an indicator that can be put on a style to affect where the style is applied. The syntax is StyleName@Context(AnyParameters); for example, ipf-padding-left@content(10px).

Putting a style context on a style moves the effect of the style to the context. For example, if the above padding style is put on a cell where the content is an enabled text field (text box), the padding inside of the text box will be 10px. If @content would have been omitted, the padding would instead have moved the whole text box 10px to the right (assuming it was left aligned).

Note: If both a style context modifier and an element state modifier are used, then the style context modifier has to be listed first.

Currently, the available contexts are content, the gauge contexts described in Gauge, and the chart contexts described in Chart.

The content context causes the style be applied to the content generated by the FDF.

Using the content context on a region is currently not supported and will have no effect.

Examples: ipf-paddingleft@content(10px) on the password text boxes:

ipf-paddingleft(10px) on the password text boxes:

ipf-backgroundcolor@content(#FFEBCC) on the password text boxes:

Compare the image above with the next one, which does not use @content for the style on the password text boxes. Notice now that the text box cells get the background color, but not in the actual text boxes:
