latentStyles (§2.7.3.5)

Attributes

Description

locked (Latent Style Locking Setting)

Specifies the default setting for the locked element (§2.7.3.7) which shall be applied to the latent style with the matching style name value.

If this element is omitted, the default locked state for this latent style shall be determined by the defLockedState attribute on the parent latentStyles element.

[Example: Consider a WordprocessingML document in which all styles which are not stored in the document shall be locked except for the TestStyle style. This requirement would be specified using latent styles as follows:

<w:latentStyles … w:defLockedState="true">
<w:lsdException w:name="TestStyle" w:locked="false"/>
</w:latentStyles>

The locked attribute on the latent style exception specifies that the TestStyle style shall have a locked element setting of false by default. end example]

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_OnOff simple type (§2.18.67).

name (Primary Style Name)

Specifies the primary name for the style which shall inherit this set of latent style property exceptions.

If the current application does not know of an internal primary style with the current name, then this set of latent style exceptions may be ignored.

[Example: Consider a WordprocessingML document in which all styles which are not stored in the document shall be locked except for the TestStyle style. This requirement would be specified using latent styles as follows:

<w:latentStyles … w:defLockedState="true">
<w:lsdException w:name="TestStyle" w:locked="false"/>
</w:latentStyles>

The name attribute on the latent style exception specifies that the TestStyle style shall have this set of latent style properties (if the application knows of a style with this name). end example]

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_String simple type (§2.18.89).

qFormat (Latent Style Primary Style Setting)

Specifies the default setting for the qFormat element (§2.7.3.14) which shall be applied to the latent style with the matching style name value.

If this element is omitted, the default qFormat state for this latent style shall be determined by the defQFormat attribute on the parent latentStyles element.

[Example: Consider a WordprocessingML document in which all styles which are not stored in the document shall not be primary styles except for the TestStyle style. This requirement would be specified using latent styles as follows:

<w:latentStyles … w:defQFormat="false">
<w:lsdException w:name="TestStyle" w:qFormat="true"/>
</w:latentStyles>

The qFormat attribute on the latent style exception specifies that the TestStyle style shall have a qFormat element setting of true by default. end example]

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_OnOff simple type (§2.18.67).

semiHidden (Semi hidden text override)

Specifies the default setting for the semiHidden element (§2.7.3.16) which shall be applied to the latent style with the matching style name value.

If this element is omitted, the default semiHidden state for this latent style shall be determined by the defSemiHidden attribute on the parent latentStyles element.

[Example: Consider a WordprocessingML document in which all styles which are not stored in the document shall not be semi-hidden except for the TestStyle style. This requirement would be specified using latent styles as follows:

<w:latentStyles … w:defSemiHidden="false">
<w:lsdException w:name="TestStyle" w:semiHidden="true"/>
</w:latentStyles>

The semiHidden attribute on the latent style exception specifies that the TestStyle style shall have a semiHidden element setting of true by default. end example]

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_OnOff simple type (§2.18.67).

uiPriority (Override default sorting order)

Specifies the default setting for the uiPriority element (§2.7.3.19) which shall be applied to the latent style with the matching style name value.

If this element is omitted, the default uiPriority state for this latent style shall be determined by the defUIPriority attribute on the parent latentStyles element.

[Example: Consider a WordprocessingML document in which all styles which are not stored in the document shall have a priority value of 10 except for the TestStyle style. This requirement would be specified using latent styles as follows:

<w:latentStyles … w:defUIPriority="10">
<w:lsdException w:name="TestStyle" w:uiPriority="25"/>
</w:latentStyles>

The uiPriority attribute on the latent style exception specifies that the TestStyle style shall have a uiPriority element setting of 25 by default. end example]

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_DecimalNumber simple type (§2.18.16).

unhideWhenUsed (Unhide when used)

Specifies the default setting for the unhideWhenUsed element (§2.7.3.20) which shall be applied to the latent style with the matching style name value.

If this element is omitted, the default unhideWhenUsed state for this latent style shall be determined by the defUnhideWhenUsed attribute on the parent latentStyles element.

[Example: Consider a WordprocessingML document in which all styles are to be hidden until used except for the TestStyle style. This requirement would be specified using latent styles as follows:

<w:latentStyles … w:defUnhideWhenUsed="true">
<w:lsdException w:name="TestStyle" w:unhideWhenUsed="false"/>
</w:latentStyles>

The unhideWhenUsed attribute on the latent style exception specifies that the TestStyle style shall have an unhideWhenUsed element setting of false by default. end example]

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_OnOff simple type (§2.18.67).
