TEXT AND TYPOGRAPHY
Removing conditional styles
There are two ways to remove conditional styles from text to which they have been
applied:
To remove the conditional styles from the selected paragraphs and revert the •
text to its underlying paragraph style sheets, choose Revert Selected Text to
Base Styles from the Conditional Styles palette menu.
To remove the conditional styles from the selected paragraphs and leave the •
styling applied by the conditional styles in place, click No Conditional Style in
the Conditional Styles palette or choose Resolve Conditional Styles on
Selected Text from the Conditional Styles palette menu.
Using conditional style markers
If there is no natural aspect of a text flow (such as a particular character or the end
of a sentence) where you can stop or start the application of a conditional style, you
can insert a zero-width character called a conditional style marker. For example,
assume you have a plain text file that contains a series of multi-paragraph articles,
each with a one-paragraph headline. You can still use conditional styles to format
them, like so:
Insert a conditional style marker at the beginning of each headline. To insert a 1.
conditional style marker, choose Utilities > Insert Character > Special >
Conditional Style Marker.
Plain text with conditional style markers (highlighted in yellow)
Create a conditional style that applies the Headline paragraph style sheet to the 2.
first paragraph and the Body style sheet until the next occurrence of a
conditional style marker. At the bottom of the Edit Conditional Style dialog
box, check Repeat Conditional Style At and select Conditional Style Marker.
