Right-Click in editor window to search stylesheet for selected style

[GregTheGrate]

It would be great if one could highlight a style in the editor window, right-click and the selected style would be located in the stylesheet for the book. Understand there may be many - perhaps a dialogue for next occurrence as well.

What does highlight a style mean? You can already ctrl+click on a class name and the editor will jump to it

I suspect the OP means something like this:

ctrl+click seems a lot easier thean highlight + right click + choose option in menu.

In the text <p class="msonormal">This is a sentence.</p>, I want to be able to highlight msonormal, right-click on it and have to option to jump to msonormal in the stylesheet

[kovidgoyal]

Hold down the ctrl key and click on msonormal instead.

Hmm, that does not seem to work for me.
It does jump to the stylesheet.css, but just seems to land on a random class or at the top of the page.

There will be something weird with your book in that case. Open a bug report and attach the book. Most likely it is using some kind of special CSS @ rule.

I've had similar problems with ctrl+left-click in the calibre Editor, but not in Sigil (version 1.7.0), on the same text in the same EPUBs.

That said, in Sigil I would normally use the Go to Link or Style keyboard shortcut, or if I forget that, then the CV context menu via the keyboard.

I've put my calibre problem down to my chronic neurological disability.

Make sure the file contains Valid links to the Style sheet(s).

I had this happen and Calibre just jumped to the (top) first listed Stylesheet even tho there were no linked sheets

Here is a scrambled book. Just to first ensure it's not an issue with my edits...

Weird, It looks fine. Debug did not squawk

Ctrl-click a <p> does nothing instead of jumping to the p{...}
Did not find the style .scene , but it did bring up the correct CSS
Sigil 1.9.20 on the same machine worked as expected

I have found the solution to the problem. In the CSS, the first two lines are...

@charset "utf-8";
@namespace h "http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";

Remove them both and ctrl-click will once again work.

Now that is odd. I coulda sworn I have used that feature on books with the second line

This is what I get when I do that
