I have a number of text frames on a page. Each Is to be formatting as follows:
(TITLE):
<BREAK>
(MAIN BODY)
Where the title is a serif font, terminated by a colon and a break, and then the main body begins.
I am able to get main body to appear after the colon, but I need to insert a line break here which seems to restart the paragraph style. How do I update the paragraph style to change only after I hit "enter" ?
Thank you for the clarification. Would this be the correct approach:
So I can avoid using character styles altogether?
Yes. That lets you control font, size, spacing and (if you set up next-paragraph-style) paragraph to paragraph flow, and manage each independently — if for example you want to make a global tweak on title spacing or font size.
Using any kind of override, even defined Character Styles (the only proper method) imposes a layer of complexity that makes it harder to get consistency and to make global changes easily. And soft returns bypass a lot of the style control features, making consistent formatting and changes, among other things (like clean TOCs) much harder.
