| Description: |
The Edit Macro dialog of the code, container, gallery and menu macros shows the fields in alphabetical order, so the parameter that every example sets comes last, and the styling parameters are shown with the main ones. The macros to change, with the file where most of the fix is done:
The main problems:
- The main parameter, language for code, layoutStyle for container and type for menu, comes after the others because the fields are sorted alphabetically.
- The cssClass, class and id styling parameters are not marked as advanced.
- code shows an image field inherited from the Box macro, which no example sets, and container opens with no layout while every example uses columns.
