> Also, I applied paragraph style for the name of the dish including this

> I edited the paragraph style. Then, as expected the settings were changed
> on the paragraphs they were applied to but, unexpectedly, the char style
> itself, while still tagged as such as I could see in the PP, had in fact no
> effect as the formatting was that of the paragraph style: no more local
> formatting from that char stylesheet. Moreover, when I try to wipe off
> everything with the broom and re-apply, nothing works anymore.
>
> So, there is a glitch.

> I tested that with RC6 on OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.8
