Hi Cor,

sorry, again forget to "reply to all". Why can't the list be organized as all the others?

Hi Olivier,

Can we get "Duplicate" and the new style name be "Copy of xyz"? All xyz
attributes get copied in the new style.

I always thought that New does that trick with the selected style ..?


Not a real copying. What happens with "new" depends on the kind of style. For the most kinds you get a style with a link to that style, from which you call "new". With this link the value of the properties are inherited. So you can build a hierarchy of styles.

An important exception is the page style. You cannot build hierarchies of page styles. But for page styles the properties are not copied to the new page style, so that you have to start from scratch. So there is a deficiency in page styles: you have neither linking nor copying.

I guess, that adding "Copy" to the page styles will be easier than adding a linking feature. But I have not examined the code.

Kind regards
Regina
