I would know whether it is possible to search for styles (and optionally replace them with others)?
I cannot see any way of doing so with Nisus Writer Pro (2.1..
Some other word processors can do this (WordPerfect, Word, LibreOffice).
Search for (and optionally, replace styles).
Re: Search for (and optionally, replace styles).
This is indeed possible and in fact one of the strengths of Nisus. The easiest way I know is to find the style you want to replace... let's say Heading 1. Find it in the Style Palette. Select it. There's a gear menu in that palette, which allows you to find all in that style. Do that, then choose a different style for the selected text.
You are done.
You are done.
Re: Search for (and optionally, replace styles).
As Vance says the commands "Select All In Style" and "Select Next In Style" are available in several places:
Another method is to use the Find/Replace function of Nisus:
- In the Menu "Format > Paragraph/Character Style"
- In the gear menu of the Style palette
- In the menus of the icons in the status bar of the window (bottom right)
Another method is to use the Find/Replace function of Nisus:
- Enter "Any" or "Any Text" from the "Wild Card" menu in the find box
- Apply the desired formatting (the "Formatting Sensitive" box should become checked)
- Find or Replace as desired
