Style for following paragraph only works for RH default styles?

[Douglas_Campbell]

I'm creating my own styles in the styles and formatting pod. When you choose 'Edit' and then fiddle with the settings in the dialogue box, there is an option for "Style (style for following paragraph).

This is a great feature. The problem is, it only seems to work if you choose a style that existed by default in RH (e.g. Heading 1, Normal). When I choose a style I created, the next style created with a hard return is just a repeat of whatever style you were in on the previous line.

It's hard for me to understand why it won't work with any of the other styles I created, since they all appear in this dialogue-box list as options. Could someone please enlighten me?

It works for me. Can you check that you have the correct style sheet attached to the topic?

I'm using the default style sheet. I've added my own topics in it.

Any other thoughts?
