Subject:I know why Word is a four letter word From:John Posada <jposada99 -at- gmail -dot- com> To:Tech Writers <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- techwr-l -dot- com> Date:Wed, 20 Nov 2019 12:57:53 -0500
Hi, guys...after being an FM user for more than 5 years, I feel I'm having
to learn Word (v2016) all over again.
For the last 3 days, I've been wrestling with styles. In effect, my issue
is, when I define a style, I want it to stay defined exactly how I defined
it. I don't want to have it indent on me, If I define a bullet with a .25
indent, I want it to STAY indented .25 and not change on me. If I make a
line a bullet, I don't want the whole F'ing document to turn bullet.
I WISH I could make this place an FM shop, but there is just too much
document collaboration needed here and even I can't see the overall
advantage.
Thanks guys.
