Question

Character Style automatically being applied

When I hit CMD-T for the type tool and then begin to type, a character style that I created is being automatically applied. How do I stop this from happening? I'd ideally like it to be Basic Paragraph and No Character style.

 

Thanks!

Hi defaultmddqkfraj2cg,

before you begin to type anything:

Make sure that character style [None] is selected in the Character Styles panel.

    Hi @defaultmddqkfraj2cg:

     

    Cmd+t will open the Character Panel. Just tapping the letter "t" will select the Type tool.

     

    Before you try it:

    • Choose Edit > Deselect all.
    • Open the Paragraph Styles panel. Click on Basic Paragraph. If it shows Basic Paragraph+, then right click it > Apply [Basic Paragraph], Clear Overrides.
    • Then open the Character Styles panel. Click on [None]. 

     

    It sounds like you are dealing with a default override.
