Remove a style from your document

You may have received a document with styles that do not match the way in which you do your
work. You can remove all vestiges of that style from your document (both the style’s name and the
fact that it is applied to text in your document).

1. Choose the menu command View > Style Sheet.
2. Click the name of the style you wish to remove.

!

Be sure not to click inside the style’s name or the sample text area or on any of the attributes that
make up the style.

3. Either:

Press

x

, or

If the Navigator pane is open and shows the list of styles, click the Minus (-) button.

If your style is not applied to any text you will see the following dialog:

The “style is not currently used” dialog

If, however, your style is applied to text you will see the following dialog, which states that “This
style is currently used in the document. Deleting it may change the formatting of your
document.”:

You should consider carefully how you want to proceed.

Resolve conflicts between styles

You can copy and paste text with its associated styles from one document to another.
Depending on what you have set in your General preferences of Nisus Writer Pro (as explained in
Set “defaults” for the application and new files” on page 116) you have a variety of choices. The
default is set to Always ask me what to do.
If a Style with the same name already exists in a new document, but it has different attributes,
Nisus Writer Pro presents a sheet that offers a series of choices.
