Specify whether or not you want the frame to appear on the top, bottom,
left and right of the selected text by clicking the buttons in the preview
section.
If you edit an existing text shading style, the changes will be applied immediately
wherever this text shading style has been used in the layout.
Once you have created a text shading style, you can use this style in both paragraph
and character style sheets. Select it from the Text Shading drop-down menu in the
Edit Character Style Sheet dialog or in the Formats tab of the Edit Paragraph
Style Sheet dialog.
Applying text shading
To apply shading to existing text:
Select the text to be shaded. To apply shading to an entire paragraph, place the 1.
cursor anywhere in the paragraph.
Do one of the following things: 2.
Display the Text Shading Styles palette (Window > Text Shading Styles)
and select a defined text shading style to apply to the text.
Use the controls in the Text Shading tab of the Measurements palette.
Apply a defined text shading style to either a character or paragraph style
sheet and apply that style sheet to the text.
You can select an empty text box or an empty paragraph in a text box as Step1.
After Step 2, the text shading style will be applied to the text as you are typing.
There is a difference between applying text shading to an entire paragraph, or to
just selected text. When using the Text Shading tab of the Measurements palette,
there is a drop-down menu allowing you to choose Paragraph or Text.
When using the Text Shading Styles palette, this is generally determined by what
you selected before choosing a text shading style to apply, with a few exceptions.
