Targeting Elements using Objective Code Video

This video explains how to use an Academic Report customisable stylesheet (CSS) in TASS.web to target and customise specific report elements using Objective Codes, allowing particular objectives and results to display differently from others. It outlines the prerequisites for working with style sheets, introduces the concept of targeting through selectors, and explains the different selector types available. Using a practical example, the video demonstrates how to identify the correct style sheet element, apply an objective code selector, and modify properties such as font size, weight, colour and borders to visually highlight an overall grade within a report, before regenerating the academic report to confirm the changes.
