## Sample use cases
### Customizing the printing stylesheet
When printing a document or exporting as PDF, it is possible to adjust the style by creating a CSS note that uses the `@media`selector.

```
@media print {

### Per-workspace styles
When using <a class="reference-link" href="../Basic%20Concepts%20and%20Features/Navigation/Workspaces.md">Workspaces</a>, it can be helpful to create a visual distinction between notes in different workspaces.
To do so:
1. In the note with `#workspace`, add an inheritable attribute `#cssClass(inheritable)` with a value that uniquely identifies the workspace (say `my-workspace`).
2. Anywhere in the note structure, create a CSS note with `#appCss`.
#### Change the color of the icons in the <a class="reference-link" href="../Basic%20Concepts%20and%20Features/UI%20Elements/Note%20Tree.md">Note Tree</a>
```
.fancytree-node.my-workspace.fancytree-custom-icon {
color: #ff0000;
}
```
#### Change the color of the note title and the icon
To change the color of the note title and the icon (above the content):
```
.note-split.my-workspace .note-icon-widget button.note-icon,
.note-split.my-workspace .note-title-widget input.note-title {
color: #ff0000;
}
```
#### Add a watermark to the note content
<figure class="image image-style-align-right image_resized" style="width:39.97%;"><img style="aspect-ratio:641/630;" src="1_Custom app-wide CSS_image.png" width="641" height="630"></figure>
1. Insert an image in any note and take the URL of the image.
2. Use the following CSS, adjusting the `background-image` and `width` and `height` to the desired values.
```
.note-split.my-workspace .scrolling-container:after {
position: fixed;
content: "";
background-image: url("/api/attachments/Rvm3zJNITQI1/image/logo.png");
background-size: contain;
background-position: center;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
width: 237px;
height: 44px;
bottom: 1em;
right: 1em;
opacity: 0.5;
z-index: 0;
}
```
