Delete an object style

  1. In the Object Styles panel, select an object style.
  2. Choose Delete Object Style from the panel menu or drag the style to the Delete icon at the bottom of the Object Styles panel.
  3. If you delete a style that is applied to objects or on which other styles are based, you will be prompted to specify a replacement style in the Delete Object Style dialog box. Do one of the following:

    • To restyle objects that currently use the deleted style, choose the style you want to apply to the objects and click OK.

    • To leave objects unchanged, choose [None], make sure Preserve Formatting is checked, and click OK. Any objects that use the deleted style retain the same attributes, but are no longer associated with a style.

    • To remove all attribute settings you’ve applied, choose [None], deselect Preserve Formatting, and click OK.

Note: To delete all styles not applied to objects, choose Select All Unused from the Object Styles panel menu, and then click the Delete icon.
