FM styles lost when DropdownBody applied

I'm creating Webhelp files directly from Framemaker 12 - with no Robohelp interaction, just using the Publish option. (We do have TCS 5 Trial version, but I'm experimenting with just the FM 12 output.)

I want to create some drop-down captions and body text, and am applying these styles to text using Special>Publish Options>Dynamic HTML effects>Drop Down Caption and Drop Down Body.

This works fine when it's simply a single line for the caption, and a basic, single paragraph for the DDB. But if I apply the DDB style to a chunk of text including, for example, a Note style, numbered list styles and bullets, the formatting in these styles is lost, and cross references cease to work.

Is this just something I have to live with (and use only single paragraphs in plain Body text for the drop down text)? Or is there a workaround that anyone knows of?

Many thanks in advance

Laura
