Styles

Although Cocoaʼs styling support is limited, you can use the Styles
drop-down in the ruler to assign styles that you often use to your
text. Most people wonʼt need to worry about styles, however, since
you can set your default styling for text views in the preferences
(see

Editor preferences

, p. 62).

Select text and choose a style from the drop-down to set text to a
predefined style.

To define a new style:

Format some text. Select it.

Choose Styles→Other… in the ruler.

Choose Add To Favorites.

Type a name, and choose whether to include the font and

ruler in the style definition.

In the sheet from step , you can use the arrows to jump to the
first, previous, selected, next, and last styles in the text view. Click
the Favorite Styles radio button to remove or apply other
predefined styles.

Keep in mind that styles you define using the ruler will be available
in all applications that use the default Cocoa ruler.
