Cannot change font from italic to regular

[Harpenstreng 0]

Font insists on being italic no matter what I do. Style settings keeps telling me that italic is off and font trait is regular.

Thanks for the screenshot, but I meant could you attach the AFDesign file you are using please?

Seems like the problem I reported, right?

Best regards!

It could be, but it's hard to say with just a screenshot of the Text Style!

Do you mean the *.afpub file?

Fisk_Måling_V0.01.afpub

The .afdesign file, since you're posting about Designer.

Oh, sorry. I should be in the Publisher forum...

Well, a moderator can move the discussion, now that we know

But in that case, yes, Sean was asking for the .afpub file.

I attached the file above. If it makes sense, please move the discussion (it seems that other users have experienced the same problem in Publisher, so my file may be one too many).

Select your text. Scroll down to the Strong Emphasis character style. Click on the symbol at the right-side of the Strong Emphasis character style. Click on the Detach Characters from Strong Emphasis Style in the pop-up (second from bottom). 

The paragraph should revert to BodyPlakat style without the Strong Emphasis character style. You will need to do this for all the text blocks.

Alternatively--something I just figured out--Select all the text frames. The Context bar at the top of the window will show the Strong Emphasis character style being used.

Click on that drop-down and change it to No Style.

Thanks guys! Mike has hit the nail on the head!

The thing is that my BodyPlakat style comes out italicised even though italic seems to be off in the BodyPlakat style definition dialogue. Sure, I can change that afterwards but then the style is not to much use.

Regardless of the style definition, you have provided an override to the style, for your Text Frames, via the Context menu. That's what @MikeW pointed out. You have told the Text Frame to use Strong Emphasis via its Character controls:

Select a Text Frame, then reset that via the pulldown to [No Style] and see what happens.

Personally, I believe the ability to set a text frame's text style is all sorts of wrong. This thread exemplifies this issue.
