Every time that I indent a sentence, the style changes from Normal to None.

Can you help?

Here is my CSS file

I've created a CSS with your definitions and applied it to a topic. Clicking the Indent button works fine, which is what I expected.

First thing to do is try the same thing in another project including the samples. You will find the samples at

C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe RoboHelp 8\RoboHTML\Samples\en_US

or

I apologize profusely for not wording my question correctly.

What I meant to say was:

I have a sentence that uses the "Normal" style font.

I press the "bullet" button, which indents the sentence and puts a bullet in the front of it.

This causes the sentence style to change to "(none)", which is different than Normal style.

Again, my sincere apologies - I must have been tired.


Hi there

I'm seeing this all the time. I've made a new habit of applying Bullets, then immediately clicking the Styles drop-down and choosing Normal as my next step. I created a special toolbar that I placed beneath the Bullet icon for this purpose.
