In the Object Styles panel, double-click the style name, or select the style and choose Style Options in the Styles panel menu. Note that
this applies the style to any selected object or sets it as the default object type.
2. In the Object Style Options dialog box, select the category that contains the options you want to change, and change the desired settings.

4. Click OK.
Delete an object style

To delete all styles not applied to objects, chooseSelect All Unused from the Object Styles panel menu, and then click the Delete icon.
