      Good evening,

      (CS6)

      I would like to know if there is a way to associate a color label with a style. for example a character style. So the words having this style would have this color in background. In principle, you can associate a color label with a page and thus visually define the completed pages, those in progress and those not processed. I would have liked to use the color label to quickly visualize text already having a style and those who do not. I have not found anything… a hope? ;-) thanks in advance

      Hi Nicolas, you can use the underline options to create a kind of highlighter

      Hi Claudio

      Yes the underline is a workaround. Thank you. But I would have preferred to use a background (temporary) more visible … But I did not find in the properties of a style. Maybe there is another way ???

      You can change the height of the underline to make it thicker, option + click on the underline icon, it’ll open the underline options

      Bonjour Nicolas
      Si je comprends bien, c’est plutôt un “aperçu” que tu souhaites, plutôt qu’appliquer un soulignement coloré qui sera bien évidemment visible à l’export.
      Il existe un magnifique script (gratuit, qui plus est) écrit par Marc Autret qui fait exactement ce que tu souhaites:

      Oui tout à fait. Un peu à l’image de ce que j’utilise avec MS WORD lors de la création de multi index. Une couleur pour chaque index, c’est très pratique lors de la mise au point des index, de “voir” où sont les tags. Je souhaitai le même principe en environnement Indesign pour visualiser l’état des styles charactère déjà posés. Ici effectivement la solution de Claudio est un workaround en attendant mieux. et donc un grand merci pour ce script de Marc Autret que je vais tester aussitôt. Je connais le site mais n’avait pas cherché assez ;-)
