Re: Conditional tags fail to display color and style

[Thomas Neuburger <thomasn@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Ezra,

The responder who suggested checking Show/Hide was likely correct.

If that doesn't work, check for overlapping conditions that "wipe out" the 
indicators. While this problem may not be the case here, it often happens 
that given enough conditions (it doesn't take many), the colors used start 
to replicate when conditions overlap. That is, the color auto-assigned to 
text tagged with conditions A+B will be the same as the color 
author-assigned to condition C.

Good luck,

Tom Neuburger
