6. Click OK.
PlanetPress Design creates the style. The style appears in the Styles folder in the Structure area.
To work in the Style Preview:
1. If the Style Preview is not visible, in the Style dialog click the Preview button.
The Style Preview appears, and displays the test string using the settings entered to date in the Style dialog.
2. In the Style Preview do any of the following:
l To change the test string, in the Test string box either modify the currently selected string or select a previously
entered string. The Preview updates to reflect the changes to the test string.
l To change the zoom level, use the Zoom toolbar in the upper left of the Style Preview. Click in the Current zoom
factor box and enter the new zoom (the zoom factor can be any value from 10 to 1000). Alternatively click the
Zoom in or Zoom out tool to zoom in or out respectively, by the zoom factor set in the User Options dialog box.
PlanetPress Design updates the Current zoom factor box to reflect the new zoom level.
Apply a Style
The procedures here describe how to apply a style to one or more objects in a document. Note that when you first create an
object or a group, PlanetPress Design assigns the default style to that object or group. You can subsequently change that style
using the object’s properties dialog box, the Object Inspector, or the procedures described here.
You can also change the style PlanetPress Design assigns to new objects by default. See "Set the Default Style for New Objects
and Groups" (page 124).
To apply a style to a single object or group:
1. In the Structure area, drag the style to the object or group to which you want to apply it.
2. Release it.
To apply a style to one or more objects and/or groups in a document:
1. Select one or more objects and/or groups.
2. In the Object Inspector, select the style you want to associate with the selected objects and/or groups. Note that if
you associate a style with a text object as a whole, that style overrides any others defined in the text object.
PlanetPress Design applies the style to all text in the selected objects and/or groups. This style becomes the default
style for any PlanetPress Talk code you add in the PlanetPress Talk properties of the objects/groups.
View or Edit the Properties of a Style
You can view or edit the properties of a style using either the Object Inspector or the properties dialog box for the style. If the
property you want to edit is the name of the style, also see "Change the Display Name of an Element in the Structure Area"
(page n).
To view or edit properties using the Object Inspector:
1. In the Structure area, select the style whose properties you want to view or edit.
The Object Inspector displays the properties of that style. If the Object Inspector is not visible, see "Show or Hide
Areas of the Program Window" (page 70).
2. In the Object Inspector, make any necessary modifications to the properties. See "Use the Object Inspector" (page n)
for help.
PlanetPress Design updates the style. If you edited the name of the style, PlanetPress Design also updates the name of
the style in all objects that reference it
