Lesson 2 – Using Styles

Word 2016

If you clear formatting from text formatted with a character style, the text adopts the paragraph formatting around it, rather than the Normal style.

Clear the Quick Styles Gallery

NOTE When text is selected, if it has paragraph style formatting, the style is highlighted in the Quick Styles gallery. However, depending on what section of the gallery is being displayed at the time, the style may not be visible. Scrolling through the gallery will reveal the highlighted style. If you have the Styles dialog box open, the Clear All command, which appears at the top of the Styles list in the Styles task pane, has the same effect as the Clear Formatting command. The Clear All command remains at the top of the Styles list regardless of which option is set for Select styles to show in the Style Pane Options dialog box. When you clear a format, make sure that the format is not used as a field. For example, Heading styles are used in creating a table of contents. If you clear a Heading style, that text is not included in the table of contents.
