My problem is that in my output I have countless duplicates. F. ex h2, h3,

And also I don’t want to delete any so not to destroy any of the styling.
When you delete a style, you get to choose its replacement. What I usually do is edit the “duplicate” style and change its font color to some lurid purple so I can spot where it is being used. (If the page is published, and thus clean, changing the color will mark all of the pages where it is used with a bullet, indicating that they are now “dirty”.) I can then flip through those pages and get a sense of what I could replace them with to clean up the styles. Then delete the style, choose the correct replacement, and then publish and save. Then move to the next style in the list. Sometimes, the changes that were made locally (for this is how that extra copy of the style came to be) are wanted and needed, so you may need to create a h2.purple style to accommodate that local need. But that will be more explanatory than h2.styl42.

The only thing is his screengrab is showing exact duplicates - from what
looks like the head styles of his html document. Instead of h2.style1,
h2.style2, etc., it’s showing the same definition over and over. That looks
like some kind of program bug to me.

Yep, that’s definitely a bug. Omar, could you send your file into email@hidden, please?
Thanks,

Is there something like “Show Style” similar to the “Show” button in Edit > Resources? Or does one have to hunt around to see where a style is applied (or delete and replace with a bright color as suggested above)?
