Stylist - how to prevent selecting multiple style classes (urgent)

Hey guys..

The Stylist plug-in allows a user to select one or more styles.

This is confusing to most of our clients and they wish they could just select a single style.

Nothing in the forum or tickets database to be found on this..

Any help urgently required due to presentation tomorrow, thanks a lot
Tom

Thanks for the hack.

However, it does not automatically deselect the old style but simply prevents selecting a second one.

With the amount of confusion we get from clients I would classify the inability of selecting just one style as a bug and not a feature request.

Of course it would be great if a simple setting would allow to define single or multi selection.

Thanks
Tom

If you really want to spoil this brilliant feature, try this:
