--- Comment #49 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote@utsa.edu> ---
(In reply to Todd from comment #48)
My understanding is that "format->page" is "suppose" to only affect the
current page and subsequent new pages, not existing pages, even if under the
active page.
Only I can never figure out when it is the current page and when it is
global.
Nope, there is no "Direct Formatting" for Pages--you will always be working
with a style when formatting pages. And Page styles are one of the styles that
will *always* AutoUpdate (i.e. there is no "Auto Update" checkbox selection on
the Style editor's Organizer tab). You change it anywhere, and it will auto
update (perhaps "autocorrupt") its use anywhere else in the document. Powerful
stuff :-)
Not understanding that seems to be what continues to trip you up...
I suggest to rename 'Pageā¦' to 'Edit Page Style' and move it out of the
Character-Paragraph section. Perhaps put it after 'Watermark', that has
already 'Columns', which alters the page style too.
+1, for Regina's suggestion the movement out of the block of Direct Formatting
controls
