ument no longer inherits attributes from Body1, which is still in the original document. However, if you copy both Body1 and Body2 to a new document, the relationship is preserved, and Body2 will inherit attributes from its parent style. Note: When you do this, Canvas changes style names in the new doc- ument. For example, a style named “Body 2” will become “Body 2 - 2.” Applying type styles Applying type styles is similar to applying individual character or paragraph formats using the Type palette. However, instead of con- figuring settings on each of the tabs in the palette, you can simply choose style names in the pop-up menu at the bottom-right corner of the Type palette. The pop-up menu displays the current type style name. The C and indicate if the style is a character or paragraph style, or both. If “+++” appears to the right of a style name, the style has been modified but not saved. If you choose a style in the pop-up menu when “+++” appears next to the current style, you will lose the modifications to the style. Therefore, if you want to use the settings again, you should save the modified style with a new name before applying other styles. To apply a style to selected text or text objects:  Select the text or text object(s) to which you want to apply a style. Choose a style in the pop-up menu at the bottom-right of the Type palette. Click Apply to implement the style. If the text you selected already had a style applied, Canvas replaces the style with the style you choose. In addition, if you apply a para- graph style with font attributes to highlighted text, the font attributes affect the selection only, and the paragraph attributes affect the entire paragraph. To use a type style as the current format setting:  If neces- sary, deselect all text objects by pressing Enter (Mac) or Esc (Win- dows). Choose a style in the pop-up menu on the bottom-right corner of the Type palette and click Apply. Canvas formats new text objects with the specified style. Indicates character or paragraph style Style name Indicates modified style Tip To set current inks (other than black) for new text, save the inks as a type style attribute and use the type style as the current text format. These inks don’t affect the current inks for vector objects.
