borders for indented paragraph, with style applied to wider protio
I have in my document a style that has upper/lower borders defined. I
selected a portion of text consisting of a few paragraphs and formatted it with that style. So far so good - the whole portion of text now has a border above it (before it begins) and a border below it (after it ends). Then I selected a paragraph somewhere in the middle of this stylized portion of text, and indented it to the right. For some reason, this earned the paragraph a pair of borders of its own, even though the style had already been applied to it through the bigger portion of text that contains it. How can I rid the middle paragraph of the up/down borders? Here is a visual of what that looks like - http://www.badongo.com/pic/5124940 Thanks in advance for any help! |

An indented paragraph should have a style of its own, anyway.
