# Styles
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Use styles to apply additional formatting to some or all of the text in a TextMesh Pro object. A style is a combination of opening and closing [rich text tags](RichText.md), and can also include leading and trailing characters.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* To define styles, use a TextMesh Pro [style sheet](StyleSheets.md).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* To apply styles to your text, use the [`<style>` rich text tag](RichTextStyle.md) in the text editor.

## Custom styles example
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Say you want headings in your text to be big, red, and bold with an asterisk to either side and a line break at the end.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
That requires several tags for each heading, which makes the formatting cumbersome to maintain, and the text more difficult to read in the editor.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`<font-weight=700><size=2em><color=#FF0000>*Heading*</color></size></font-weight><br>`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It's easier to put all of the markup in a style. The example below shows a style called `H1`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Once you create the style you can format all of your headings with a single `<style>` tag.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`<style="H1">Heading</style>`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Not only does that make the text easier to read in the editor, you can now update all of the headings in your text just by changing the style.
