See the procedures on this page for creating style sheet rules, then specify the condition and styles for the created rule.

A rule is created with the Explicit Elements condition and Shape Style style definition, which includes redefinitions for fillColor (with a randomly assigned color value) and penColor (with a comparatively darker color value) attributes. For modifying them as needed, see the (2026x Refresh1) Specifying a condition for a rule and (2026x Refresh1) Specifying styles for a rule pages.
