DefaultInlineFormatType
• DefaultInlineFormatType is an option for cells that determines the format used for displaying expressions in a newly created inline cell.
• DefaultInlineFormatType is usually defined in the style definition cell for a particular cell style. Its value determines the format type used when a new cell of that style is created.
• Typical settings for DefaultFormatType are: DefaultTextInlineFormatType, DefaultInputInlineFormatType, and DefaultOutputInlineFormatType. Each of these variables is in turn associated with a format type like StandardForm, TraditionalForm, InputForm, or OutputForm.
• The values of DefaultTextInlineFormatType, DefaultInputInlineFormatType, and DefaultOutputInlineFormatType are determined by the settings for the suboptions, "TextInline", "InputInline", and "OutputInline" respectively, of the option CommonDefaultFormatTypes. For example, suppose you set CommonDefaultFormatTypes 
{"TextInline" TraditionalForm}. This means that any cell style that has DefaultInlineFormatType DefaultTextInlineFormatType, will use TraditionalForm.
