Alas, see my post 'Writer: "Subscript" character style doesn't work'
(no followups so far) about how trying to create a character style for
subscripting does not seem to work. (Subscripting+italics might work,
I haven't tried.)
Hmmmm. Perhaps I don't understand but I *seem* to have managed to create
a subscript *character* style which, when applied, turns the selected
text to subscript but leaves other attributes alone. For example, I
selected one word in a sentence in red text and set it to my subscript
character style. It became subscripted but stayed red. Ditto with a few
characters within a "Heading 1". Ditto with italic text - a few
characters can be set to subscript by applying the style without
affecting the "italicness". This using Writer in OOo2.4 on Win XP Pro.
Is this a version specific or OS specific issue?
All I did was to bring up the format pane (F11), choose Character
styles, select Default and then New (via right click). I then gave the
new style a name ("SubscriptChar") and set its "Position" to Subscript.
The new style now appears in the list of available character styles and
can be applied, like any other, to a selected sequence of characters.
Please tell me what I'm missing; I won't take umbrage ;-)
