Dear Stef,

I don't understand what you're trying to say. The problem is that the final

HTML-file contains unused css-code. If you visit the added hyperlink in the

previous post you can see what I mean.

The final css-source is unnecessary big when using RichViewEdit for a lot

of changes. A solution is to use 'DeleteUnusedStyles' but this clears the

undo/redo history. So that's not an option.

Sergey had some items on his to-do-list. Two of the things are: 'to make

undoable version of DeleteUnusedStyles' and 'to avoid saving unused styles

in CSS'. My question is if there is any progress in this development.

Thanks.
