Format dialog box
-
To open this dialog box, click the cogged gear (
) which appears near the bottom of each text box and in the toolbar that appears with Overlay Tool overlays (
).
The name of the current style appears in the statement at the bottom of the dialog box. This information is important because changes you make affect all other text boxes that use the same language and style.
-
The Format dialog box has two or more tabs depending on the context:
Style Name tab - choose or create a style (not on cover pages).
Characters tab - configure character elements of the chosen or default style.
Paragraph tab - configure paragraph elements of the chosen or default style.
Highlighting tab - choose background colors and text colors to use in overlays when audio is playing.
Overlay tab - choose padding between the text and the overlay border.
Note
-
If the text box has words, you can see the effect of your change immediately.
The combination of font size, line spacing and word spacing can cause a red font color or red line.

Currently, to delete an unwanted style or edit a style name, you would need to edit the book's *.htm file. You may want to get more help.
