What I was trying to say is that:
1. The Calibre tooltip says you can put the
PATH to a CSS file into the Conversion -- Common Options -- Look & Feel -- Styling tab -- Extra CSS box, BUT the Modify PI "Append Extra CSS" check box only uses 'raw' CSS. If you have just the path, then it doesn't seem to do anything (understandable, but a message would be nice). That initially caused some head scratching
2. If you have more than one style sheet, the PI appends the CSS to each. Guess it has no way to know, unless it asked in those cases. That seems to clutter things, and leaves the appended classes defined multiple times
3. I guess I have a very personal opinion about using controls (such as the Styling text box) for uses that I thing were other than what they were intended for. The Styling textbox is under Conversion, but Modify ePub PI uses it. Yes, it is
sort of a conversion, but IMHO it's a stretch
4. I like the PI and use it to make my life easier. There's a few quirks that a separate configuration 'page' would make easier. Including a more current Help that lists all available features and details about using them
