Hi @JEFFREY37014905e5ee,

 

To access the Paragraph Styles Options menu in InDesign 20.0, follow these steps:

1. Open the 'Paragraph Styles' panel by going to 'Window' > 'Styles' > 'Paragraph Styles'.
2. In the panel, right-click on the paragraph style you want to edit.
3. From the context menu, select 'Edit [Style Name]'. This will open the Paragraph Style Options menu where you can modify various settings, including export tagging.

Let me know if you need more help with the export tagging process!

 

Best,  
Abhishek Rao

Thanks, Abhishek:

But that Style Options Menu still does not come up when I follow your
instructions. I do not see a choice to "Edit" the style when I right-click
or use the drop down at the top.

Hi @JEFFREY37014905e5ee,

 

Thanks for the clarification. It seems like there may be an issue with accessing the Style Options menu. I’ve shared a screen recording for reference to show how you should be able to access the "Edit" option in the Paragraph Styles panel.

Please take a look, and let me know if the issue persists. I’m here to help!

 

Best,  
Abhishek Rao

It's a link in the message you replied to.

 

Maybe you should back up to some basic InDesign tutorials instead of trying to jump forward to the very advanced features of things like export tagging? ID is not the easiest tool to use for EPUB export unless you have a solid grounding in its general use.

It's right where you show it, in the Paragraph Style menu for each para style. Are you not finding it?

That's the menu I cannot access anywhere. The screen shot of it that I used
is from an Adobe Help article. Right-clicking in the Paragraph Styles Menu
does not bring it up, like it's supposed to. How do you find it?

You shouldn't have to right-click in anything. If you can open the Paragraph Style Options menu for any style (by double-clicking or, to be fair, right-clicking and selecting Edit...), it should be right there at the bottom:

Are you saying you see the above menu for a paragraph style, and that option is missing?

What happens if you double-click the style? The option is there, so it must be something else.

Here are some trouble-shooting steps:

Can you access the export tags off the Paragraph Styles hamburger menu? You can edit tags all at once - I find this interface more convenient.

Yes, as do I, but that's secondary to the OP not finding the individual menu. (IMHO.)

Could the OP be looking at the Properties Panel instead of the Paragraph Styles panel..?
