It would help if you were a bit more specific. What are you referring to? As someone else stated, Style dialogs are modal and not all attributes are visible in the [many] toolbars or obvious from the WYSIWYG text. It would be great if these dialogs were floating/dockable and dynamic depending on where the text cursor was. > > Why I cannot get the default style to change the particular attribute. > > What is causing it. > > That usually is becuse of one of two situations: > i) The user simply does not know wht the attribute of the default style is; > ii) Somebody decided to be stupid, and apply direct formtting, instead > of styles. I think there is a third situation: iii) It is covered by another style that overrides the default style. Check the actual covering style in the "Apply Style" box in the Formatting toolbar or in the "Styles and Formatting" window. Also, from memory, once you change an attribute in a higher level style, you can't easily set it back to use the setting from the "Linked with" style (usually the Default style). --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
