Style behaviour

The style of a paragraph may be changed with a call to the function CRichText:: ApplyParagraphStyleL. This function may also optionally remove the specific paragraph or character formatting that exists on the specified paragraphs. Do this by specifying an appropriate value for the TApplyParaStyleMode argument.

Where specific formatting exists on a paragraph that has a style applied, the specific formatting always overrides the style formatting. For example, if the style sets bold character formatting and right-alignment of the paragraph, specific character formatting can be used to specify certain parts of the text as non-bold, and specific paragraph formatting can set the alignment to centre-aligned.

Two styles may not simultaneously apply to one paragraph. The style applied first will cease to apply as soon as the second style is applied.
