Optionally, enter a number to indicate the recurrence of this CSS formatting. For example to use this CSS for: 

  • alternate children, enter 2
  • every 5th child, enter 5.
N-th Child OffsetOptionally, specify where you want the formatting to start after the first child. For example, to apply the formatting to the second item, instead of the first, enter 2.

Using N-th Child and N-th Child Offset

Use N-th Child and N-th Child Offset to specify different formatting for children. The two fields together work as an ax + b expression, where:

  • a is the N-th Child
  • x is the current N-th Child
  • b is the N-th Child Offset 

For example, to apply the CSS formatting:

  • to the 5th child only, leave the N-th Child empty and set the N-th Child Offset to 5.
  • alternate children, starting with the second, (2, 4, 6...) set the N-th Child to 2 and the N-th Child Offset to 2.
  • not format the first 10 items, but then format every 3rd child (i.e. 11,14,17...), set the N-th Child to 3 and the N-th Child Offset to 11.
