Question

Any way to search places where a style is used in RH?

Hi

I've a few questions about style management:

  1. Is there a way to search for where a style is used in a project or topic?
  2. If so, is there a way to search-and-replace, ie, find where a style is used and replace it with another style?
  3. When deleting a style, is there a way RH can be set to display a warning if the style to be deleted is being used anywhere?

FrameMaker handles the above use cases very well. However, I can't yet see how these actions are done in RH.

Thanks!

RH doesn't warn you if you delete a style that is in use.

If you want to replace a specific style with another one, the easiest

way is to use a search and replace operation. For example, to change the

style 'myStyle1' into 'myStyle2', use the following search action:

class="myStyle1"

and replace by

class="myStyle2"

Make a backup before doing this though, as you can cripple a project in

seconds.

Kind regards,

Willam
