Abstract: The embodiments contemplate a system and method for identifying a relationship of a property by displaying properties of style sheets, selecting a property, and identifying related properties on related style sheets. The selected property may be chosen from style sheets or from an element, such as an object. Style sheets may be related to one another through an inheritance relationship, in which an inherited style sheet inherits the properties defined on an inheritor style sheet and also includes its own defined properties. The identification may be of an inheritor property, in which the inheritor property's style sheet is inherited to one or more style sheets defining the same property. The identification may also be that of an inherited property, where the inherited property's style sheet inherits a style sheet defining the same property. The identification may be a highlighting of the selected property and its related properties, or other mechanism.
