thanks kal!

you cannot set a shortcut only with a numpad.

what do you mean vinny 38 by:

if you don’t use the download link below and copy/paste your code, please replace opening/closing quotation marks by straight one.

can you explain better please?

no thats not the problem i tried to create a para style with the name red.

also does it apply to all text in the document

Thanks for the script

But I have a few comments:

1) The script does each paragraph as a separate action so I can’t do a CTRL Z, can you adjust the script that it adds the style as 1 action.

2) It does not add a character style it just adds the effect (I can’t highlight it and change it to a different style after using the script, nothing will happen)

3) It applies the effect to all paragraphs, can you adjust so it asks on which paragraph style you want to add the effect.

4) It makes an override on the paragraph style.

5) Is it possible to create this effect via the nested styles in the paragraph style dialog.

Also is it possible in GREP format (I want to place a anchored object via GREP before the second word of all paragraphs with 2 lines or more and add a bold effect to the first word (this is necessary for Hebrew typesetting to create drop words))

is there someone who knows how to write such a kind of script?

thanks

it’s long text so that won’t work

does not work Graham Park

but thanks for trying to help
