Steps for Debugging Stylesheets

Stylus Studio provides tools for debugging transformations.

To debug a stylesheet:
1. Open a stylesheet.
2. Set up a scenario or select the scenario you want to use. See Applying Stylesheets.
4. Apply the stylesheet by pressing F5, not clicking Preview Result. If you click Preview Result, Stylus Studio applies the stylesheet without invoking the debugger.
5. Examine the information in the debugging tools and in the Preview window.
7. Iteratively step through the stylesheet or program and examine the information in the debugging tools.
