Select the Text Content tool and select the target paragraphs or place the text cursor
where you want the conditional styling to begin.
3
Click the name of the conditional style in the Conditional Styles palette.
Note that once you have applied a conditional style to text, that text will continue to be
automatically formatted until you remove the conditional style. To remove a conditional
style from a paragraph, select the paragraph or place the text insertion point in the
paragraph, then click No Conditional Style in the Conditional Styles palette.
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 to Base Style 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 Style 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:
1
Insert a conditional style marker at the beginning of each headline. To insert a conditional
style marker, choose Utilities > Insert Character > Special > Conditional Style Marker.
