2. Re: Indesign nested style not displaying correctly
Michael Witherell Apr 13, 2009 3:10 PM (in response to mikejasinski)Mike,
I would edit the first nested style to apply through one bullet (copy n paste a bullet here); or better: set up the paragraph style to make bullets and you could instead charcter style the bullet from the Bullets and Numbering part of the dialog box, and leave it out of the nested style section.
Question: Do you want the blue to cover a set number of lines? Then define a line style, just south of the nested styles part of the dialog box.
If the trick relies on a End Nested Style character embedded, then you are probably doing that because you want random word count lengths for the blue character style to be applied in different paragraphs. Sounds like work, tho, to me, and I would look for a simpler rhythm, if there is one.

4. Re: Indesign nested style not displaying correctly
Michael Witherell Apr 13, 2009 3:16 PM (in response to mikejasinski)Is the end nested style special character embedded into the text? Could you try putting a None nested style in between your nested styles?

5. Re: Indesign nested style not displaying correctly
mikejasinski Apr 13, 2009 3:18 PM (in response to Michael Witherell)unfortunately, there is no rhyme or reason (punctuation, number of lines, etc.) as to where the writer wants the highlighted copy to stop (which really drives me CRAZY! So i rely on the "end nested" instead of manually styling with a character style. This "styling process" displays correctly (in realtime) in ID-CS3.

mikejasinski Apr 13, 2009 3:22 PM (in response to Michael Witherell)the styling works correctly, it just only visually shows the additional lines of copy styling after i open and close the document. have had this issue since day 1 with CS4, not in CS3.
i manually insert the end nested style character, where it is needed.

Michael Witherell Apr 13, 2009 3:25 PM (in response to mikejasinski)Is your CS4 patched?
What happens when you do a force screen refresh (Shift F5, I think.)?
