<paragraph role="paragraph" id="par_id821641421059397">Use the Style Inspector to uncover formatting issues in your text document.</paragraph>
<list type="unordered">
<listitem>
<paragraph id="par_id991641421123640" role="listitem">Style properties overwritten by direct formatting are greyed out in the Paragraph and Character style tree, indicating that the style property is not effective anymore.</paragraph>
</listitem>

<paragraph id="par_id841641421139731" role="listitem">Paragraph style properties that are re-defined by a child paragraph style are greyed out.</paragraph>

<paragraph id="par_id911641421185601" role="listitem">Paragraph style and direct properties that are re-defined by character styles or character direct properties are greyed.</paragraph>
</listitem>
</list>
<paragraph role="paragraph" id="par_id621641337772747">For example, if the margins of the paragraph are changed by direct formatting using the rulers, the margins property of the paragraph style are greyed out and the margins properties are displayed in the Paragraph Direct Formatting entry of the Style Inspector.</paragraph>
<paragraph role="paragraph" id="par_id771641378992460">Another example, if the <emph>Emphasis</emph> character style highlights a word with a yellow background, and the user mistakenly overwrote it by using a white background, the <literal>yellow</literal> attribute would be greyed-out and <literal>white</literal> is listed under Direct Formatting in the Style Inspector. The Style Inspector shows only those attributes that diverge from the parent (which is usually the Default Paragraph Style).</paragraph>
<paragraph role="paragraph" id="par_id101641338214488">Some features of the Style Inspector are of interest mainly to advanced users:</paragraph>

<listitem>
<paragraph id="par_id281641338268000" role="listitem">The Style Inspector can show any hidden RDF (Resource Description Framework, a W3C standard) metadata at the cursor position associated with text spans, paragraphs, and bookmarks.

<paragraph id="par_id531641338286704" role="listitem">Custom color metadata field shadings can be set for an annotated text range or a metadata field, for visualization of metadata categories in the document editor.
