Nevermind! I got it, I had accidentally applied the character style to the entire sentence, rather than letting the grep expression do the work. Now all good, and my thanks again!

Jongware

I tried the grep style, and it did not cancel after the em dashes, all the type following also had the -120 tracking.

What I did:

In “rf” paragraph style, I pasted the expression from your response (?<!~_)~_~_(?=~_(?!~_)) into the find box of the grep style window, and applied character style “3 em dash”. “3 em dash” character style has -120 tracking.

why is it kerning the whole sentence? I have screen shots to show(jpg) but do not know how to include here in my response.

sorry I’m so daft!
