Operation Manual

Text 77
The Text Style tab highlights the paragraph or character style applied to
any selected text.
As both paragraph and character formatting can be applied to the same
text, all of the current text's formatting is displayed in the Current
format box on the tab. In the example below, currently selected text has
a 'Strong' character style applied over a 'Body' paragraph style.
To update a named style using the properties of existing text:
1. Make your desired formatting changes to any text that uses a named
style.
2. On the Text Styles tab, right-click the style and choose Update
<style> to Match Selection.
All text using the named style, throughout the publication, takes on the
new properties.
To modify an existing style:
1. From the Text Styles tab:
• Right-click on the character or paragraph style you want to
modify and then choose Modify <style>
- or -
• With a style selected, select
Manage from the Text Styles
tab, then choose the Modify button.
2. From the Text Style dialog, define (or change) the style name, base
style, and any character or paragraph attributes, tabs, bullets, and
drop caps you want to include in the style definition.
3. Click OK to accept style properties, or Cancel to abandon changes.
