Paragraph styles and character styles

A paragraph style is a complete specification for the appearance of a

paragraph, including all its font and paragraph format attributes. Every

paragraph in WebPlus has a paragraph style associated with it.

• WebPlus includes one built-in paragraph style called "Normal" with

a specification consisting of generic attributes including left-aligned,

12pt Verdana. You can modify the "Normal" style by redefining any

of its attributes, and create or adopt any number of new or pre-defined

styles having different names and attributes.

• Applying a paragraph style to text updates all the text in the paragraph

except sections that have been locally formatted. For example, a single

word marked as bold would remain bold when the paragraph style was

updated or changed.

A character style includes only font attributes (name, point size, bold, italic,

etc.), and you apply it at the character level—that is, to a range of selected

characters—rather than to the whole paragraph.

• Typically, a character style applies emphasis (such as italics, bolding

or color) to whatever underlying font the text already uses; the

assumption is that you want to keep that underlying font the same. The

base character style is shown in the Text Styles tab (or palette) as

"Default Paragraph Font," which has no specified attributes but

basically means "whatever font the paragraph style already uses."

• Applying the Default Paragraph Font option from the Text Styles tab

(or the Text context toolbar's Styles box) will strip any selected local

character formatting you've added and will restores original text

attributes (paragraph styles are not affected).

• As with paragraph styles, you can define any number of new character

styles using different names and attributes (or adopt a pre-defined

character style).

Working with named styles

The named style of the currently selected text is displayed in

either the Text Styles tab or the drop-down Styles box on the Text context

toolbar. A character style (if one is applied locally) may be shown; otherwise it

indicates the paragraph style.
