I also use a text frame, but take it one step further with a FrameScript that inserts a text frame in an anchored frame, sizes it, and sets the paragraph tag for me.

Doing this also enables us to insert cross-references for callouts, which adds similar navigation to graphic hotspots. ;-) Rene Stephenson Fred Ridder <docudoc at hotmail.com> wrote: Gillian Flato asked (in part):> > Does anyone know why I can't apply styles to them globally?

Callouts created with the drawing tools cannot be manipulated with named styles because they are not paragraphs in the text flow. They are lines of characters in a graphic frame which is entirely separate from the text flow even though it is surrounded by it. _________________________________________________________________ Windows Live Hotmail and Microsoft Office Outlook ? together at last.
