    Default Applying text style to one object ONLY

    Hi All,

    I have been struggling with this for some times now and wonder if
    someone found out how to do this:

    I simply want to apply a text style to one object only: a text
    navbar/crumb bread trail.

    Since it has links there are of course a few parameters to set right.

    The problem I face is that there is no way to apply the new style to
    only the targeted object, it applies to all text object on the page
    (with a page defined scope).

    It is possible to set styles with graphical navbars or banners BUT not
    with text objects unless there is a secret someone would like to share here.

    Regards,

    I have been waiting to see if you got an answer - I have submitted this
    same question 3 times and got no answer.

    I don't know what you've tried so far but you should be able to create a
    custom style in your CSS. Then highlight the text on your page and apply
    the custom style. Do a local publish to see it.

    I had an error in my paragraph:

    "It is possible to set CUSTOM styles with graphical navbars or banners
    BUT not POSSIBLE with text objects (such as text navbar, breadcrumb
    trail) unless there is a secret someone would like to share here."

    I tried everything for hours and I have been using NOF for 10 years so I
    know most workarounds.

    When I define a style for text navigation bar, it will apply to all
    links on a page, which is bad as the graphic grid I am constrained to
    use sets a background color to the navbar requiring white links.

    So when I apply it, all regular links on the page becomes invisible.

    This is very bad of course.

    Are you using classes for your links?

    If not, then try going to Text | Manage Styles and creating
    the custom styles for a class. My class 2 styles are called:

    ...Two:hover
    ...Two:linked (.Two:link)
    ...Two:visited

    (The dot at the beginning of each name is automatically
    inserted by NOF to denote a custom style.) Make sure you
    define the styles as Site-wide. For each style, everything
    is automatic except the color.

    When you create a text link using these styles, click the
    HTML button, then click the Inside Link tab, and type:
    class="two"

    I haven't tried creating a text navbar, so I don't know how
    classes work in that context. What you might need to do is
    use the standard (no class) link formatting for the navbar
    and classes for all other links in your site.

    HTH,
    Allison
