Toolbars Beyond the WriteRAP Toolbar

So your WriteRAP CMS team has been looking at some functionality to make applying styles for the author easier to use. The PTG group had developed a toolbar for their authors to add to their documents to, essentially, make "human" the paragraph styles.

Basically in WriteRAP, you have two methods to style paragraphs: the Styles and Formatting palette and an optional toolbar. Figures will better illustrate. Here is the Styles and Formatting palette:

Here is the optional toolbar:

As you can see, a big difference exists between the two. The Styles and Formatting palette is the common and expected technique. Unfortunately, it lacks an ability to display meaningful names about the style. CHAP_BM is simply that. But the optional toolbar provide an ability to show the style name, CHAP_BM, while also providing a human-readable form: Body text.

Currently, your CMS team is experimenting with creating the toolbars and working on methods to include the user-friendly toolbars with your templates. Look for future communications and posts!
