These features are duplicated in the Control panel-if the Control panel is displaying character formatting, then click the panel’s Paragraph Formatting Controls button or press Command-Option-7/Ctrl-Alt-7 to switch to paragraph formatting. To display the Paragraph panel, press Command-Option-T/Ctrl-Alt-T. You can find all of InDesign’s paragraph formatting features in the Paragraph panel. (Note that you can force a line break without creating a new paragraph-called a “soft return”-by typing Shift-Return/Shift-Enter.) If what you’re trying to do, however, is apply character formatting (such as font or point size) to all of the characters in the paragraph, you should quadruple-click (or triple-click, if you’ve turned off the Triple Click to Select a Line option in the Type panel of the Preferences dialog box) the paragraph with the Type tool-that way, you’ll select all of the characters, including the carriage return character. The selection doesn’t have to include all of the text, it only has to touch each paragraph. To select more than one paragraph, drag the cursor through the paragraphs you want to format. You don’t have to select all of the text in a paragraph to apply paragraph formatting-all you need to do is click the Type tool in the paragraph. Paragraph alignment, indents, tabs, spacing, and hyphenation settings are all examples of paragraph formatting. When you apply paragraph formatting, the formatting applies to all of the characters in the paragraph. What makes a paragraph a paragraph? InDesign’s definition is simple-a paragraph is any string of characters that ends with a carriage return.
