I'm looking for the most efficient way to all all aspects of an existing named paragraph style "A" to another named paragraph style "B". I'd especially like to find a keyboard-only way to do this.

To my surprise, Copy Special > Paste doesn't seem to copy tab settings...(?) This leads me to suppose that other aspects of the source p'style may not be crossing the Great Paste Divide.

Over the years I've used a variety of more or less clumsy multi-step, multi-tool "tricks" (including third-party plug-ins) to apply one named paragraph style to another, but knowing FrameMaker as I do I suspect there may be a truly efficient way to do what I want.

Is there?

Cheers & thanks,
Riley
