Chapter 7: Styles

Working with styles

Duplicate styles or style groups

Right-click (Windows) or Control-click (Mac OS) a style or style group in the Styles panel, and then choose
Duplicate Style.

A new style or group appears in the Styles panel, with the same name followed by “copy.” If you duplicated a group
of styles, the style names within the new group remain the same.

You can also duplicate styles by copying them to another group.

Group styles

You can organize styles by grouping them into separate folders in the Character Styles, Paragraph Styles, Object Styles,
Table Styles, and Cell Styles panels. You can even nest groups within groups. Styles do not need to be in a group; you
can add them to a group or to the root level of the panel.

Create a style group

1

In the Styles panel:

• To create the group at the root level, deselect all styles.

• To create a group within a group, select and open a group.

• To include existing styles in the group, select the styles.

2

Choose New Style Group from the Styles panel menu, or choose New Group From Styles to move the selected styles
into the new group.

3

Type the name of the group and click OK.

4

To move a style into the group, drag the style over the style group. When the style group is highlighted, release the
mouse button.

Copy styles to a group

When you copy a style to a different group, the styles are not linked. Even though they have the same name, editing one
style does not change the attributes of the other style.

1

Select the style or group you want to copy.

2

Choose Copy To Group from the Styles panel menu.

3

Select the group (or [Root] level) that you want to copy the styles or group to, and then click OK.

If the group already contains style names identical to those being copied, incoming styles are renamed.
