The best from the best

[Petar Petrenko]

My requests:

1. Master pages must have the same funcionality like those one in Quark. It means that you can select, edit, move, delete... them on the workout pages. If you don't want some of them to be editable, movable... it can be done on master page(s).

2. Paragraph and Character styles should work the same way like in InDesign. Characters attributes are part of the Paragraph Styles and can be, also, defined in Character Styles. Why is this so much important?

• If you have some words in a paragraph with local formating (bold, italic...) and you ALT click on a paragraph style, these local formating will be lost.
• If you create a character style with style "Bold" and all other attributes are left as "------" or "None", then whenever you change the font in paragraph style, the text formated with this character style will take the same font and ALT click on a paragraph style won't change it..
• If you create a character style with font "Myriad Pro" and style "Bold" and all other attributes are left as "------" or "None", then whenever you change the font in paragraph style, the text formated with this character style will always be Myriad Pro Bold and ALT click on a paragraph style won't change it.
• Quark's Paragraph and Character styles are very confusing to work with.

I spend years on QXPress, and thought it was ID styles that were strange. I grumbled a lot at first.
Now I completely forgetted about QXPress styles, and can't compare them.

But I'm sure QXPress way for Master pages was best, since with ID the only use is mainly for page number and decoration… I miss a lot the way QXP managed text blocs and objects styles in master pages, and how they stay linked to them.
