Style problem
Posted: 2013-02-03 05:36:25
I'm using v. 2.0.4 on Snow Leopard.
I typed the first two lines in the image below, resetting the "Heading 1" line using the Styles menu in the Writing Palette Group. Then, I clicked in the second line, "Normal line 1," and in the Formatting Palette Group clicked Paragraph -> Indents and set the First Line Indent to 0.25. That worked.
Next, I skipped a line and typed "Heading 2," setting that to the Heading 2 style, and then added "Normal line 2." I expected "Normal line 2" to also have the 0.25 first line indent as I thought I'd changed the normal style; however, it didn't.
I also tried to use "Redefine Style From Selection" to reset "Normal line 2" but that didn't even work. (Does it have a bug?)
What did I do wrong? I want the Normal style to have a quarter-inch first line indent.
