style-conflict

The style-conflict element declares behavior to be used when one or more flagging methods collide on a single content element.

In case of conflicts between flagging methods at different levels (for example, a section is flagged green and a paragraph within the section is flagged red), the most deeply nested flagging method applies.

In case of conflicts between flagging methods on the same element (for example, a single element is being flagged with both green and red color), it is recommended that the conflicts be resolved as follows:

Flagging method Conflict behavior
startflag/endflag Add all flags that apply.
color Follow the style-conflict @foreground-conflict-color setting, or use an output-appropriate default color if no conflict color is set.
backcolor Follow the style-conflict @background-conflict-color setting, or use an output-appropriate default color if no conflict color is set.
style Add all font styles that apply. If two different kinds of underline are used, default to the heaviest (double underline) and use the foreground-conflict-color.
changebar Add all change bars that apply.
