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 Express (as explained
in “Using the General Preferences to Control the Application” on page 219) 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 Express presents a sheet that offers a series of choices.
