      Hi.

      “Next Style” feature is not working. I already configured the next style to be applied but nothing happens. Is there something I need to do to make it work? I’m using it because my first paragraph has Drop Caps and I need the next ones to don’t use it.

      Besides that, I have some lists with a ruler line between items, but I don’t want the last one to have that line, so I have a style without the line just for the last item. Is there a more smart way to deal with that instead of having two styles for a list?

      And another one: some lists I have has bold text until a “:” as nested style. No problem is doing that, but if I have a list without the “:”, I need to use another style to avoid this list to be bold. Again, no problem, but maybe there is a smarter way. ;)

      Thanks,
      Luiz

      When you say Next Style doesn’t work, do you mean that if you place your cursor at the end of the paragraph and you press Return/Enter, then nothing happens?

      You are correct in creating more than one style. Lists usually need 2 or 3 different paragraph styles.

      You can add an “end nested style” invisible character at the beginning (or wherever) of the lists that you don’t want that bold style.

      Hi.

      I just tried the “End Nested Style” and it worked fine, thanks a lot.

      About the “Next Style”, yes, nothing happen. After reading your message I decided to make some tests and it only work if I type the text and hit Return/Enter. If I paste a text in the box and decide to break the text in two paragraphs, the second one will have Drop Caps too. Maybe I’m doing it wrong pasting and breaking it, any suggestion will be great. :)

      Thanks a lot!
