      Hello dear InDesign community.

      Help me please to edit my GREP code to make text italic within single quotation marks with words that contains apostrophe. I have a problem that it stops working on the first apostrophe in a sentence. GREP sees it as the right quotation mark.
      My GREP now is: ~[(.*?)~]

      Thanks a lot.

      Oksana

      This should do the trick.

      (?<= )’\S+(?=’)’

      I assumed it was to find and make it all italic
      ‘mark’s’
      ‘Oksana’s’

      Also my GREP probably got more complicated than it needed to be,
      this is simpler and does the job..
