InDesign Tip - Use Quick Apply to Quickly Edit Styles

December 6, 2007 – 11:56 pm | by J. Rodriguez

id_appicon Use Quick Apply to quickly edit styles
The Quick Apply feature does more than just allow you to apply
styles. Press Cmd/Control-Return/Enter to open the Quick Apply
panel. Then, type as many letters as necessary to get to the name
of a specific style. BUT, instead of pressing the Return/Enter, press
Cmd/Control-Return/Enter again. You’re now in the Style Options
dialog box for that style! Make your edits and then close to change
the style definition.
