NOTE Some styles are used on several tabs. For example, the Dimension Text tab
specifies appearance of text used in dimensions. The formatting originates in the
Text style, accessed in the browser pane. When a style references another style
for some of its formatting, the referenced style is called a substyle.
Create Styles
You can create a style by modifying an existing style. The changed style is
saved in the current document and is not available to other documents until
it is saved to the style library.
TRY IT: Create a style in the current document
1 On the Style and Standard Editor dialog box, click a style you want to
use as the basis for the new style. For example, click Leader in the browser
pane and then select a leader style to display its attributes in the window.
2 Click New. On the New Style Name dialog box, accept the default “Copy
of ....” name or give it a unique name.
