    • Method Detail

      • setPseudoClass

        void setPseudoClass​(java.lang.String pseudoClass,
                    AuthorElement element)

        Sets a pseudo class in the specified element.

        This change *IS NOT* subject to undo/redo.

        What is good for: You can use a non standard (custom) pseudo class to impose a style change on a specific element. For instance you can have CSS styles matching a custom pseudo-class, like the one below: 

           section:access-control-user {
      display:block;
   } 
   section {
      display:none;
   }

        By setting the pseudoClass "access-control-user", the element section will become visible.

        Another example: 

           *:caret-visited {
      color:red;
   }
        You could create an AuthorCaretListener that sets the caret-visited pseudo class to the element at the caret location. The effect will be that all the elements traversed by the caret become red.

        Parameters:
        pseudoClass - Name of the pseudo class being set.
        element - The AuthorElement whose attribute is changing.
