Default Question realated to paragraph vs. character styles

I sounds like you are using a multilevel/outline list with list levels linked
to styles. If, say, the style linked to level 2 is red and that linked to
level 3 is black, then changing the list level from 2 to 3 changes the style
and loses the color. If you need to keep the color of certain elements in
your outline no matter what the outline level is, use a character style or
direct formatting.

Hi,
Do you guys know whether it's possible to have a style that just
specifies the paragraph-level properties of a body of text and not the
character-level properties of a body of text? I'm working with notes with
colored font in outline format. Sometimes I'd like to change outline level
of bodies of text in the outline, but when I change outline level by applying
list-linked paragraph styles, I lose the coloring of my font.

Thanks for your help,
Clark
