Article ID: KB101412

The left column shows the list of styles. You may either view the full list of possible HTML tags, or drop-down to reveal the "User-defined styles."

You may create new styles by clicking the "New" button. Double-clicking on a style (or choosing it and clicking the "Modify" button) will allow you to make changes to the style. The New Style and the Modify Style dialog boxes are very similar:

The Name field allows you to either type an HTML tag or a custom class. Custom class names must start with a period, as in ".blue," ".style1," or ".indented." The Style type field allows you to define whether or not custom styles (classes) should apply to an entire paragraph or to individual characters. In HTML-talk, this determines whether a custom style applies to a "block element" or "inline element."

When you click the Format button, you get several options... (Note - the dialog boxes for these options are the same as when you go to the Format menu.)
