OK, I've created a blank notebook called "myDefault.nb" that I want to
use as the default stylesheet for all (or at least the vast majority) of
my notebooks.
And, I've stored it away in my user Library:
~/Users/AES/Library/Mathematica/SystemFiles
/FrontEnd/StyleSheets/myDefault.nb
And, I've used the Option Inspector (with a random notebook open on
screen) to set the global option DefaultStyleDefinitions to this file,
so it will become my default style.
And, it all seems to work: myDefault.nb appears in the Stylesheet menu,
with rules above and below it; Default.nb above it; and Article, Book,
and Creative folders below it.
OK, so far, so good? . . . I've done this right? If so, now:
1) Can I get myDefault.nb to show as checked in the Stylesheet menu?
2) So far, I've changed the typefaces for some of the styles to suit me
-- all OK. But what's the option I need to modify to get rid of the
rule or overbar in the Section style? (which I personally think is not
just an unnecessary but a very unattractive default choice)
