Macros Resulting Styles Actions

Scroll Prev Up Next More
The style resulting actions determine if any of the styles defined for the current template should be applied to the text produced by a macro token (or the paragraph, textbox, table or cell, containing that text, if using paragraph, item, table or cell styles).

 

 

This setting, shown above, is located at the bottom-right of the resulting actions tab of the macros options property editor.

 

Important

 

If you are trying to apply a box, table or cell style to a template that is not the main grid of the script (or if your script is not using the use main grid as seed generation option) then you should make sure that that template contains at least one object that uses the style you plan to use (you can then set that object to be automatically deleted by the use of a zap token such as [1Zd>0] for example). Failing to do this will most often cause message 187330 to be generated.

 

Restrictions

 

Currently (October 2024), applying a style as the result of a macro requires InDesign and is not available when using QuarkXPress.
