Hi:
The sort order of the paragraph styles panel does not seem to default to alphabetical or remain that way after Sort by Name has been selected. (Which is insane, imho.) Is it possible to script it? The only properties I can see are:
{parent:application "Adobe InDesign CS4", index:4, name:"Paragraph Styles", object reference:panel "Paragraph Styles" of application "Adobe InDesign CS4", visible:true}
Any ideas are appreciated,
egr

In the object model (as viewed in ESTK), paragraph styles now have a move method enabling a script to sort them in the panel. I expect it is exposed to AppleScript. Dave

It might be easier, but it doesn't give as much control, especially if there are groups involved. But sorting things in situ always makes my head hurt... -- Shane Stanley <sstanley@myriad-com.com.au> AppleScript Pro Sessions <http://scriptingmatters.com/aspro>
