Hello,
I would love to fully utilise templates in my Writer documents, but am still
confused about its organisation.
When I open the Styles and Formatting window, it shows all styles under the
Default "category". I can make changes to, and add new entries under
Default. However, I do not like organising my styles this way, because I
can't delete the stock styles in it.
Is there a way to start my own set of styles from scratch, independent from
the Default group? Once I created my styles, how do I save them into a file
so as to use in other documents?
Default styles are there forever, you can't delete them.
Though, I encourage you to use them before any personal style creation,
because
-- the stock styles get internationally supported
eg: EN Text Body is FR Corps de texte
-> This is understadable by whoever opens the document, English speaker
or French native.
-- any user opening you docs will be able to have their own style
settings which will automagically adapt your docs to their taste.
eg: you setup the Text Body paragraph style to use Liberation Sans font
fo your document. If you pass it over to me, where I have the same style
with the Liberation Serif font setup, I can read *your* document with
*my* settings.
Styles are the pillar or OOo/LibO. Just because of this, I couldn't go
back to MSO. It is very important to grasp the styles principles and
learn their use. This knowledge brings a tremendous step in ease of
typing, document structuring and management.
Designing your own styles is of course possible -- and you'll have to do
so whenever the corresponding stock style doesn't exist -- but I
strongly insist on the use of the stock styles before any other attempt.
HTH,
