Buttons and effects

Changes you make to the look of data using the bold, italic, and justification buttons on the toolbar are applied as effects and don't change the underlying style applied to the area.

It is worth spending some time learning to use the Style and Effects dialogue boxes. If you haven't worked through the tutorials in the Getting Started guide, you should do so. The documents supplied in the Examples archive all contain a variety of styles and show different ways that styles and effects can be used.
