Text style selection dialog |
Scroll |
Allows you to set the current text style.
Immediately after calling, only the left part of the dialog with a list of text styles of the current document is displayed on the screen.
When expanded, the dialog has two windows. The right side of the dialog is used to select a library (or set) of styles and add them to the document's style list. Only one viewport can be active at a time. Activation is accomplished by clicking on the window.
Above each viewport is a search field where you can search for text styles by number or name. In the left window, the search is filtered by text style type. To find the desired style, enter the desired characters in the search field, then select the desired line from the search results list.
Styles in the list can be sorted by name or number. To change the sorting, click the desired column header. A triangle appears in the column header by which styles are sorted. Its position indicates the sorting direction—ascending or descending.
