Missing function selectedWords/selectedTrueWords

[Tore Nilsen]

I got a bit confused there. Pages behaves as you say, Microsoft Word would turn off bold on the initial push of the button, then adding bold to the styles the next time.

This is why I thought I needed to find the style of each word in a group of words when the the textStyles is mixed. And I still think that is what I need in order to mimic the behaviour of either Word or Pages.

Best Regards
Tore

> If I select the whole lot - then 'textStyle["bold"]' (in LC speak) will be 'mixed' - this is indicated by the 'Bold' button in pages not being highlighted. If I click the 'Bold' button then it does the equivalent of 'set the textStyle["bold"] of the selectedChunk to true', if I click again it does the same as setting the same property to false. In both cases 'Bar' remains italic.
