Learn how to copy and paste character and paragraph styles, link styles, and graphic styles in Adobe Muse.
As a web designer, a consistent design and style might be one of the most important requirements for your site. To achieve this, you can either reuse styles or you manually adjust format using the Control bar. Manual settings work only for smaller sites, with a limited number of repetitions. However, manually setting the format or copying styles using the Styles panel takes time and efforts. In addition, manually setting the format of an element can be error prone.
To overcome these issues, Adobe Muse allows you to quickly copy and paste styles from one element to another. You can copy and paste character styles, paragraph styles, bullets, and link styles. To copy a style from one element to another, right-click and copy the style from the source element. Select the target element where you want to paste the style, right-click, and select Paste Attributes.
Further, you can also copy and paste selective attributes from one element to another.
