[Pro] text background colour

i want to style some text with a background colour. I want to style every other line in a bullet point list and so far have achieved this by creating a style with a specific background colour. trouble is i want the colour to expand beyond the text to the width of the HTML box rather than just behind the text.

how do you do this? is it possible?

thanks

Try this: in the Styles editing dialog for the style you’ve made,
click the Extended button and put this in:
Name: display, Value: block

must be doing something wrong here (see link below to a screen grab of my styles palette) - I did exactly what you said but it hasn’t done anything?

Sorry, I don’t know why that didn’t work. Perhaps someone else can
help us both?
