This has been asked before but never answered straight up...
No offense to the answers to the three threads that I found while searching this, but the question asked was not exactly answered. I figured I would give it one more shot myself.
If I start a map with Annual 69 and draw some land masses. Then later I decide I want to change to annual 75, I know I can do that by the Drawing Properties under the File menu. However, if I try and change the fills for the land masses, I am only allowed to choose another annual 69 fill. Annual 75 fills are not even a choice.
So the question then rolls back to: How do I change the map style after I have chosen one? The answer, if there is one, has to include a top down solution, fills, symbols, etc.
Anyone?

As a "style" is the sum of a collection of independent features, it's reasonable that that's the way
they have to be changed - independently.
It's a pain, but you will find the Tome as helpful as ever.

As I also stated in the Tome, changing map styles does take some work (especially if you convert a completed map) however. Nothing difficult about it though.
