I would like to apply a character tag to a particular character that is
used in paragraphs of several different styles without changing the rest
of the attributes. As far as I can tell, Frame only lets me change
character attributes, not tags.
If I understand, the problem is to change OldTag to NewTag,
preserving all attributes. Does the following help?
Copying a particular character format (Command-Option-x on the Mac)
and pasting it (Command-V) changes attributes and tags. But if OldTag
and NewTag have the same attributes, all that happens when you paste
is that the tagname changes. So manually set up one character with
NewTag, same attribs as OldTag, and Command-OPtion-x it.
One could then FindNext through the document (Command-G), pasting
(Command-V) NewTag over OldTag on each occurrence of the target
character. So long as only occurrences of the target character have
NewTag you can then affect them and only them by altering the
attributes of NewTag, if desired. Automating this in Applescript
would be trivial.
