Thanks Mike, but for me it is not so. The Delete command just deletes ONE page and the shortcuts don't change even if master page selected (see picture). What am I doing wrong?

Wonderful! But I have not the Delete Masters function

I am not able to select more master pages but just one

Thanks for your reply. I have documents with few pages that no longer use master pages and hundredth of master pages, with styles inside. I would clean-up but I understand it is not easy. 10 documents x 100 master pages = days to work...

After detached, is it possible to delete all the master pages or it is necessary to delete each of them one by one? Thanks

@MikeTO I believe I realised that you also came in our "zona fessi", producing very good books for free...😁. It is difficult to translate "zona fessi" in English. Google translates it "Idiot zone", but this term is too strong and does not give the idea. Beside the fact that the same is applicable to me as well, I am only joking and don't want to be disrespectful. On the contrary, I greatly appreciate your work.

Sorry, I get lost in your discussion. I a short, was my mistake having deleted the Base style through "Delete unused styles"? I don't remember (but cannot exclude) if I willingly deleted it. Can I now repair this condition? However, I can confirm that the "Update styles" button fixes the situation; perhaps is only a workaround, ...but it works!

@Mark Daniel I already tried to change to 0 the left indent (instead of "no change") but in my case the behavior did not change. P.S. Thanks for your appreciation. The book is completely free and is downloadable from http://www.k100.biz/parade.htm, if you like to see it. This is only a hobby for me, but now I am working on a book that is going to be printed. So, I had to learn a lot about graphics, to prepare a professional document. That is the reason why I am so much annoying this forum. Thanks to all you, friends, may be that I eventually succeed.... 😁

Here is the document as requested. I add also the chapter where the TOC is (I just removed two pages from it). I have no problems loading the whole book if you want. Some additional notes: recently, I used the command "delete unused styles" but, for what I can remember, I always used to have problems with TOCs since long time ago (also with the previous versions) before pasting in the test page, I cleared the character styles from the two styles. You can see them uncleared in the chapter document. Tell me if you need other tests, thanks. HP E00 00 Introduction.afpub before update.afpub

Here are. I hope I understood correctly. before update.afpub after update.afpub after update and button.afpub

Sorry, I was not clear. The problem is more general: I have a TOC style, e.g., with no indents, and the TOC text. The TOC text does not reflect the style settings. In this case, the style says "0 indent" and the TOC text is indented. You can change the style as you want, sometimes the TOC text is updated, other times it doesn't. However, the magic button fixes the situation that, IMHO, should be automatic. However, when you know that, it is not a big problem, but to discover that button was not easy for me.

I try again, forgive me if I did not understand.... The cursor is on the "Voltmeter" word, after "Vo".

Thank you!

I hope I understand your request. In the picture n.3 the cursor is in the selected word (see this one, the red circled word).

Hi Walt, sorry for delay, honestly I forgot it. I post three pictures: 1) before TOC update 2) after TOC update 3) you can see that the style has been modified, but nevertheless the text did not change accordingly: the text is still indented even if the indent is set to zero. However, the "Update" key resets the things as they should.

Should it be useful for others, I noted that you can "tempt" iCloud Drive to synchronize by opening Photo. If you find that sync has been suspended, press "reactivate". Then double click the small round icon on the right of the iCloud Drive in the Finder window side list. I am not sure if this has a real scientific base or just the luck... but for me the luck is enough 😁... and in many cases it worked for me.

😁 can someone help me please? It is rather important for me and I am not able to find a workaround. Thanks

Maybe that I was not clear in my description. In two words, when you export the palette, the colours in the destination file are not changed. You need to double click every palette colour to make them effective.

Thanks, it's enough to know... 😁

It seems absolutely repetitive and replicable.

In Publisher and Photo (did not check Designer), when you move the gradient mid point, the mid point moves as expected. But if you reach 100%, the midpoint cursor disappears and you cannot recover it (or I cannot find a way to do it).

I created a palette with global colors. When I edit them in a chapter, all the items using in that color change accordingly (good). I synchronized the palette with other chapters, and I used them. Again, when I edit the palette in the chapter, all changes accordingly (good). When I change the palette in the master chapter and synchronize the palette in the other chapters, these palettes are modified accordingly (good). So I thought "wow, everything works!". But... even if the palette in the slave chapters change as expected, the items using the palette colors DON'T change (bad). To make them change, I must right click a color and select Edit Fill... When the miniwindow closes (without any change) all the items change as expected. This makes the feature almost unusable: I should every time edit each color to make them active. Did I miss some "update all" command? Thanks

By the way, I found very useful the book. I expected the typical book where you can find the most obvious things. On the contrary, it is really useful and well done!

Thanks for replying. It would very useful, also for search and replace text styles.

Is it possible or must I search each chapter separately? Thanks
