Styling
=======

Start works with several so called defined CSS classes.

You enable  these defined classes in the user interface of a content element. See illustration below.

You can controll design properties like:

* Background color

* Effects

* Forms

* Font color

* Hyphenation

* Images

  * as circles

  * with shadow

* Margins

* Shadow of content elements

* Text alignment

If you are using an extension of the start family like startgreen, you will get further classes.
