I was really tweaking the paragraph style, as in the video. I am heavily into styles and usually, everything in my finished work is assigned a style with zero overrides. Not even a Command+b for bold -- I make a bold style. I have to play around with Designer and learn the difference between, for example, adjusting a paragraph in the Text Styles panel and the same paragraph in the Paragraph panel. My attachment to styles comes from years of receiving resumés from self-proclaimed "Word experts" yet everything was the Normal style with manual overrides.

Ahh, thanks! But I still would not mind it in the Paragraph panel (and other similar panels) if only to reduce the need for mouse movement. I could do a keyboard shortcut (which I prefer over the mouse for most things) but if I am mousing around in a panel to tweak a style, I figure I'm right there and the drop down is only a tiny bit away.

Nothing happens. If the name is selected, a right-click gives me the usual (look up, copy, paste, etc.) I attached a small movie. Update.mov

When modifying a style, I spend most time doing things manually, then choosing Text > Text Styles > Update, so for ease and speed, an Update on the dropdown of a style name would be handy. Thanks.
