Modifying an outline style
You modify an outline style by changing its properties (formatting options)
in the stylesheet palette. For more information about working with styles and
the stylesheet palette, see “About the stylesheet palette” on page 9-6.
To modify an outline style:
1. Click on the Default button bar, or choose Show Stylesheet from the Window
menu.
2. Click Edit on the stylesheet palette.
The pointer changes to .
3. From the scrolling list on the left, select the name of the style to modify (for
example, select Harvard or Legal).
4. Click the arrow next to the style’s name, to make it point downward.
5. In the scrolling list on the left, select the outline level you want to modify.
6. Change the properties of the outline level.
You change a style’s properties using the document controls you’d
normally use to format text and objects (such as the tools, palettes, ruler
controls, and menu commands). For example, you may want to change
the indentation, line spacing, and the font size.
7. Repeat steps 5 and 6 for any other levels you want to change.
8. When you finish, click Done on the stylesheet palette.
