Updating character style sheets
When you select text that has uniform local formatting applied, you can update the
style sheet applied to that text to include the local formatting by clicking the
Update button . Alternatively, you can choose Style > Update Style Sheet >
Character.
To update both the paragraph style sheet and the character style sheet applied to
text so that they reflect local formatting, choose Style > Update Style Sheet > Both.

To apply a style sheet to selected text, do one of the following things:
Choose the style sheet name from the Style > Paragraph Style Sheet submenu •
or the Style > Character Style Sheet submenu.
Display the Style Sheets palette (Window menu) and then click the style sheet •
name in the palette.

while selecting ‘Apply Using Next Style‘ command even if current paragraph style
sheet is defined as Next Style. Next style will not be applied while selecting ‘Apply
