Paragraph rule help

$

Hello,

 

I'm a very regular user of paragraph rules but one thing continues to vex me.

 

I have a style in a publication that has a shorter "rule below" than the actual width of the text window.

So I apply a right indent. No problem.

 

However, I want to use the same style for other blocks of text that are a different

width. But because of the way right indent works, my underline rule can't stay fixed width since it varies

depending on the text window width.

 

Is there a way to make this short underline rule a fixed-width no matter what width the text window is?

 

The only way I see it working is to have 3 or 4 styles (when the column is x width, xx width or xxx width).

I'd like to avoid that.

 

Below is an example of a pull quote. But I might also have a pull quote double this width. Then the rule becomes

longer.

 

Thanks,

Jane
