Remember to save your work.…Now you'll apply this new stylesheet to the entire project…by using the project project properties defaults…master stylesheet field.…Save the project and open any topic to see the effect.…Each topic's title is now red.…Then you'll change the color of h1 to green and save.…Each topic's title is now green.…This challenge is taking you into some new areas in Flare,…so plan on taking about 15 minutes.…
