Retrospectively standardising the styles across my book

[Smith, Andy]

Some of you may have gathered from the couple of questions I've asked
before that I'm fairly new to Frame. I used 7.2 quite extensively a
couple of years ago, although I never set up the project or the styles.
Last year I started this project on Frame 9 and had to build the book
and all the styles from scratch. I've pretty much taught myself as I've
gone along.

 

I've done my best to keep my styles consistent across all my chapters,
using one of the chapters as the master chapter but I didn't manage to
successfully set up a template at the beginning. So now I find that I
would like to standardise all the styles across the document and
retrospectively create a template chapter that contains the master
version of all the styles.

 

Is there any advice on this? For a start should I attempt it at all or
will it be more trouble than it is worth or should I just continue using
one of the chapters as the master instead of having a template? Are
there any other issues I should consider?

 

I do find that, sometimes, when I update the book I do get warnings
about overrides which I assume are manual changes I've made to styles
that don't conform to the rest but I must admit I don't understand this
in detail.
