Thanks Rory

Understood. But that is not the same as being able to hit 'reveal codes' see exactly where the style is turned on and off (as you can currently do for some formatting with the 'Non-printing Characters' command. It would be a lot more foolproof, particularly when having problems.

That was the beauty of Word Perfect in this respect.

If you position your cursor in a paragraph, the Style for that Paragraph is shown on the left of the Formatting toolbar. If you have the Stylist open (F11 or /Format /Styles and Formatting) the Paragraph style under the cursor is highlighted; ditto for the character style under the cursor, and also the page style for the current page. The current page style is also shown centre left of the Status Bar.

A useful guide to the predefined styles (which styles you can customise) is given at
