Newbie: Creating / Applying Styles

[jonaschafer@gmail.com]

Possible newbie question:

Why is that when I create a style, be it Paragraph or Character, I
select the text I want and it creates the style - however - the style
is not applied. Instead, I have to click the style to apply it.

Am I missing something?

Thanks in advance.

No, that's the way it works. You are creating a style based on the
attributes you have selected. You then have to apply the style to that
paragraph.
