Snippets - Love 'Em Like My Husband...

I LOVE snippets. But, like my husband, they aren't quite perfect and need some changes / enhancements. Unless of course, there is a way to do what I need to do already. I remember vaguely a few months ago there was a link to an article about snippets from an expert. Couldn't find it in the search though - can someone reply with the URL?

My complaint (and it is a minor one) is that I can't do much to format a snippet. I use a background color for my notes, and many notes are snippets. But even if I format a note completely and then create a snippet from it, the background color (and indent for that matter) are dropped. There has to be a way to make snippets bend to my will.

I have given up on changing my husband, so please, give me something!!!!

Can't help with your husband but this should sort things out with snippets.

You can apply inline formatting to a snippet but embedded styles or external CSS will not work.
