Tim, At the moment style sheets only go away in Projects. I've been working with Projects and quite a bit with dynamic forms. You can implement an equivalent of style sheets pretty easily when you're working with the form JSON directly. In fact you have far better style capabilities. A style sheet is just 3 properties: font, size and style. But you can set all the text properties in the object JSON (which is part of the form JSON). So your own styles could be defined in a file in the Resources folder and include those properties along with alignment, color, etc. You 'apply' them to each text object on the form.
The biggest convenience with the current styles is recognizing the platform. But that's not hard to do. What's missing currently is a way to identify such a style and associate it with a form object. The thing there is this is likely to change the dimensions of form objects. I assume currently 4D just manages that stuff programmatically as it draws the forms on the screen. I bet how this is ultimately going to work with dynamic forms is a topic of some discussion. I think the interface with Projects, as it develops, is going to have some way to deal with this. At this point it's not even clear if Projects is going to be the default configuration at some point. I suspect so but I'm only speculating. Personally I'd like to see a command to manage importing elements from a Project (like forms, methods, tables) into 'regular' 4D databases.
