Is there a script that can inherit only specific settings from another style?

Hi @Peter Kahrel, Help,please.

About grep_query_manager.jsx

How to make this sentence include subdirectories (such as the "00paraGrep" directory)
Enable the display of .xml files and the paraGrep folder here。

I hope to manage regular expressions in groups.

Thank you very much.

Like this:

//DESCRIPTION: Manage and execute GREP queries
// Peter Kahrel
// https://creativepro.com/files/kahrel/indesign/grep_query_manager.html


//line84

 var scriptFolder = script_folder();
 var queryFolder = app.scriptPreferences.scriptsFolder.parent.parent + '/Find-Change Queries/Grep/';

//line343

var queries = Folder (queryFolder).getFiles ('*.xml');

As I said I don’t apply multiple grep style to multiple styles as it slows down indesign too much when text reflows, so I’ve never researched a solution you’re looking for as it’s counter-productive to a workflow. 

When I make a style with GREP styles I base every other style off this carefully. 

For example 
Body Text

And every other style is based on this. 
Except when say I have an indent level 2 - then that’s based off indent level 1 - which is based off Body Text

So I can change Body text and it cascades to level 1 and level 2

I can make a change to level 1 whcih cascades to level 2 

Careful style management has always been my way of proceeding. 

Again, I stay far away from many GREP styles across many styles. 

I much prefer a blanket set of GREP find and replace at the end.

That’s just me though.

Hi Eugene Tyson.

Thanks.

Unfortunately, it can only replicate Grep
It would be great if we could replicate other settings.

Does “Multi-Find Change” seem to have an open-source version?

This has been shared before.  by @Peter Kahrel

I didn't study it carefully, but now I find it has this function.

I just took a closer look at grep_query_manager.jsx and realized that I can save the Grep query.
It's a bit unfortunate that it doesn't support reading directories under the GREP path, like this: Find-Change Queries\GREP\00ParGrep\

I want to place all the Grep used in paragraph styles in a unified directory.
If combined with Grep used in the search dialog box, it would be too crowded and messy.

I typically deal with long documents so I tend to avoid GREP styles as many GREP styles, especially across different styles tend to slow down document reflow. 

I use a Multi-Find Change plugin - that’s free now - https://creativepro.com/multi-find-change-is-now-free/

And run a series of GREPs at the end of the document changes.

But there are some scripts out there
