> 33 Overriding configuration settings > 33.2 Overriding settings with markers or macros > 33.2.9 Overriding variable-key configuration settings > 33.2.9.1 Overriding paragraph and character format properties
You can override character and paragraph format
settings in the configuration sections listed in Table 33
In a macro, you would specify:
<$$[HTMLParaStyles]Size5 Bold>
Most configuration settings for text properties can apply to either a paragraph format or a character format. Temporary overrides lack a key to name the format to be affected; therefore, for a temporary override, where in the text you place the configuration marker with respect to paragraph and character formats is critical:
A persistent override affects the next instance
of the paragraph or character format named by the Key
in [
Section
]
Key
=
Value
,
or the current instance if the marker is placed in a matching paragraph or character
span; plus all subsequent instances in the same FrameMaker file, unless changed again by a later override.
Markers in replaced text are ignored
For [ParaStyleCodeReplace]
,
if placement code is already in effect because it was specified in the
configuration file, any configuration marker in the replaced text is ignored. This means
you cannot use a temporary override in a configuration marker for the replacement; instead you must use a
persistent override that names the format to be replaced, and insert
the configuration marker before the text to be replaced.
Place overrides to code with care
For [HTMLParaStyles]
and [HTMLCharStyles]
, temporary overrides to
Delete
assignments must be inserted before
the first text in the affected paragraph or character span. Persistent
overrides should be placed before the affected paragraph or character
span.
