Custom tabs with image effect setting

[Kara Suzanne241391039zp3]

Hello! I am hoping someone can help. I have custom tabs set up in my menu bar, but I want to know how I can - if it's possible - to make one specific image effect setting, and make it a tab? I use the exact same inner shadow effect setting so many times all day long that I constantly am going to effects and making the specific inner shadow image setting to apply one at a time on tons of images. Is there any way I can have my effects tab and also a custom one, or something that wil do that, where I can have that one inner shadow setting, already done, that I can click on one or ten images at a time and just click to apply the setting already done? or any way to make that happen? Please help! and thank you!

Tab settings are used to position text.

Image effect settings can be applied to frames—a text frame, a graphic frame, or a frame without content.

Unless you're using the word "tab" to mean something different than is normally used in InDesign terminology, there is no way to apply an image effect like transparency, a drop shadow or a glow, for example to a text tab.

Perhaps, you should provide an illustration (or screen capture) of what you're trying to accomplish.

Also tell us: Please tell us what operating system (exactly) you're running. Please tell us (exactly) what InDesign version you're using.

Yeh - you can use Object Styles
