Are you saying that the *words* "paint" and "style" seem too similar? Or are you saying that 1/4/5 and 6/7 are overlapping to the average author? > I don't even know if many authors have heard of > "paint" before or know what it signifies.

Right, I'm not super happy about the term for those reasons, but I don't think it's worth splitting apart 1/4/5. Better names welcome. > What about something more like: > contain: all | scroll | none; > > where: > "all" enforces #1-7, > "scroll" enforces #1, 4-7, > and "none" is the default. That's exactly opposite. You don't want "contain: scroll;" to mean "don't do anything about scrolling". ^_^ ~TJ
