find documents that use a specific style

Post by yoopits »

Is it possible to filter documents to show those that use a specified Style? Or to search for a specified Style within a topic?

Currently it is not possible, but we will consider this improvement.

Petko,

After some thought, I decided I should explain the background to this question, since a MyInfo difficulty is involved.

I have two topics, and I am using incompatible sets of styles in them. When I cut and paste a document from one topic into the second, a topic-1 style used in the document gets converted arbitrarily to an incompatible style of the second topic.

The ability to find a specific style would help me to deal with this problem while I'm cutting and pasting. But another way would be for you to work on this specific problem. For example, when pasting into a different topic, replace styles with direct formatting. Or, when it's possible, match a topic-1 style with a style of the same name in topic 2.

I mention the background to help you decide priorities.

Thanks,
David
