When local paragraph or character attributes exist in selected text, a plus sign displays
next to the style sheet name in the Style Sheets palette. To remove local attributes,
click No Style and then reselect the style sheet, or Option+click/Alt+click the style
sheet name.
Appending style sheets
To import paragraph and character style sheets from a different article or project,
choose File > Append, navigate to the target article or project file, then display the
Style Sheets pane and import the style sheets you want.
If a style sheet from the source file has the same name as a style sheet in the target
project, but is defined differently, the Append Conflict dialog box displays. You can
use this dialog box to determine how such conflicts are handled.
Working with conditional styles
Conditional styles let you automatically apply formatting to text based on the content
of that text. For example, consider the text-formatting conventions shown in the
following image:
Text that can be formatted with conditional styles
The conventions used here could be described like so:
1
Apply the Headline paragraph style sheet to the first paragraph.
2
Apply the Bold Body character style sheet to the first sentence of the second paragraph.
3
Apply the Body paragraph style sheet until you get to the end of the story.
4
When you get to the end, turn around and apply the Byline character style sheet
backwards until you get to an em dash.
Each step is executed only after the previous step executes, and at the point in the text
where the previous step leaves off. If any step fails, the rest of the steps are not executed.
The Conditional Styles feature lets you capture such instructions and apply them
automatically to text. For example, you could implement the above conventions with
the following conditional style:
