Character Style
===============

Word allows a set of run-level properties to be given a name. The set of
properties is called a *character style*. All the settings may be applied to
a run in a single action by setting the style of the run.


Protocol
--------

There are two call protocols related to character style: getting and setting
the character style of a run, and specifying a style when creating a run.

Get run style::

    >>> run = p.add_run()

    >>> run.style
    <docx.styles.style._CharacterStyle object at 0x1053ab5d0>
    >>> run.style.name
    'Default Paragraph Font'

Set run style using character style name::

    >>> run.style = 'Emphasis'
    >>> run.style.name
    'Emphasis'

Set run style using character style object::

    >>> run.style = document.styles['Strong']
    >>> run.style.name
    'Strong'

Assigning |None| to :attr:`.Run.style` causes any applied character style to
be removed. A run without a character style inherits the default character
style of the document::

    >>> run.style = None
    >>> run.style.name
    'Default Paragraph Font'

Specifying the style of a run on creation::

    >>> run = p.add_run(style='Strong')
    >>> run.style.name
    'Strong'


Specimen XML
------------

.. highlight:: xml

A baseline regular run::

  <w:p>
    <w:r>
      <w:t>This is a regular paragraph.</w:t>
    </w:r>
  </w:p>

Adding *Emphasis* character style::

  <w:p>
    <w:r>
      <w:rPr>
        <w:rStyle w:val="Emphasis"/>
      </w:rPr>
      <w:t>This paragraph appears in Emphasis character style.</w:t>
    </w:r>
  </w:p>

A style that appears in the Word user interface (UI) with one or more spaces
in its name, such as "Subtle Emphasis", will generally have a style ID with
those spaces removed. In this example, "Subtle Emphasis" becomes
"SubtleEmphasis"::

  <w:p>
    <w:r>
      <w:rPr>
        <w:rStyle w:val="SubtleEmphasis"/>
      </w:rPr>
      <w:t>a few words in Subtle Emphasis style</w:t>
    </w:r>
  </w:p>
