Applying style sheet to Responsive and Word output

Hi,
I am new to Robohelp 2022 (was using Robohelp 2017 for some time) and I upgraded a project from RH 2017 to 2022 lately.
In 2017 it was possible to apply a stylesheet to a topic and then in the output (I used Responsive and Word as my main outputs) you were able to apply another stylesheet which was then overwriting the stylesheet applied to the topics.
This gave me the opportunity to have one main stylesheet (for the topics, that covered everything) and then - depending on the output - other stylesheets that overwrite only certain styles. So both outputs used for ~80% of the styles the same style and the rest was individualized (per output).
I was wondering how to do that in RH 2022 as I did not find the possibility to apply a stylesheet to an output preset - especially word seems to have now "only" the option to do a word style mapping.

    What you want is still possible, it's just the how that has changed.

     

    See the 2022 section of my RoboHelp Tour(grainge.org) and in particular the Responsive and Word output sections. Also take a look a Templates (previously known a skins).
