Show Style Area Pane in World 2010

How do you show the styles you have applied to your writing in plain sight as opposed to clicking on everything and check each individually through the Style Window?

It could be done through the "Style Area Pane."

Following is the step-by-step instruction.

1. Click on File and Options.

2. Inside of the "Word Options" window, click "Advanced" and scroll down to the "Display" section. Change the value of "Style area pane width in Draft and Outline views" to something larger than 0. In this example, I have changed to 1". Click "OK" at the lower right side to save the change and close the window.
 

3. Please be reminded that the Style area pane can only be seen in Draft and Outline views. If you are not viewing your document under either views, make sure you click on the View tab and switch to either "Outline" or "Draft" type of document view.


4. In this example, I elected to view the document using the Outline view. The area on the left-hand side is the Style Area Pane showing the heading styles I have applied to the outlines.


C'est ca!
