You can change many aspects of your text's appearance by opening only one pop-up panel. Properties are the elements that when combined make up the look for selected text or text you subsequently type in your document. A particular combination of text properties define the appearance of text. If you find that you consistently reuse the same types of elements for your documents, you will want to create styles for them.
