Assigning dictionary items to a style

You can retrieve your defined dictionary items and assign them to a style. You can define various dictionary items by using the Dictionary feature.

Before you start assigning dictionary items to a style, you must first define dictionary items and styles.

Note: Only dictionary items with an Active status can be assigned to a style.
  1. From the main menu, open the Dictionary panel and dock it to any side of the main window.
  2. On the Style panel, open a style and click the Overview 2 tab.
  3. On the Overview 2 tab, select the list to view all dictionary items, or specify a search keyword to narrow the list.
  4. Select a dictionary item to assign it to the style.

    Alternatively, you can assign dictionary items to a style by dragging and dropping items from the Dictionary panel to the Overview 2 tab of a style. Added items are placed in the bottom of the list by default.

  5. Re-arrange the sequence of the dictionary items in the Overview 2 tab through these options:
    • Drag and drop the dictionary items to your intended sequence.
    • Click the sequence number and choose a new number from the drop-down list.
    • Click the sequence number and type a new number.
    Note: If you copy a style record, the sequence column will be copied as well.

    You will not be able to edit a style record's Overview 2 details if you only have an authority for Read Only and Delete.

  6. Click Save or Save and Close.
