The Style Editor can be used as a stand-alone application to edit the style sheet for a report that has already been published. To open the Style Editor, browse to the ‘InstantAtlasStyleEditor.exe’ file (by default this will have been installed in ‘C:\Program Files\EsriUK\InstantAtlas’) and double click it. The Style Editor will open but the interface will remain empty until you open a report style sheet.

You can also right-click on the default.css file for a dynamic report you have published and choose the ‘Edit with InstantAtlas Style Editor’ option to start the Style Editor.

A third option is to launch the Style Editor through the Designer by clicking on ‘Style’ – ‘Edit Styles’ in the Designer menu bar. If opened in this way, any changes done in the Style Editor need to be applied back to the Designer and can’t be saved to the default.css file directly.
