Hi,

Do you mean? I have a para style with char styles applied via grep styles and now I want these char styles applied (and directly selected) regardless of these grep styles!

Yes that's right because when I apply a different paragraph style does not grep

grep style character style applied convertible with a script

1/ You can easily map para styles with another para styles grep styles. The [JS] to do that is: GrepStyleMap, a collective work you'll find on Colin Flashman's Colecandoo! web site:

2/ You can easily convert grep styles to directly editable char styles. The [JS] to do that is: TurnGrepStyles2CharStyles, a very cool script written by Adi Ravid.

You'll find it on InDesignSecrets web site:
