![]() I want to do my homework but I find it utterly frustruating that certain books, online references will say something and my software of course do/show a completely different thing.let me demonstrate with a following ![]() I am making great progress with InDesign but there are certain issues. ![]() And if you want to create a new text frames in advance, and then fill them with the overset text from a text frame you already have, just click the out port on the overset frame and into the middle of the empty frame. So, instead of cutting overset text from the story editor and pasting it into a separate text frame, you can have linked text frames if you like. This is similar to the way word processors work-similar, but not the same, in that pages do not disappear when text is contracted. If you hold the Shift key before you make that click into the top left margin, the cursor will contain a squiggly line with an arrow, indicating that if the end of the page is reached, and there is more overset text to place, new pages will be created, with new text frames to contain the text. If, before you click, you move the cursor to the top left corner margins, the black wedge of the paragraph icon will change to a white wedge, indicating that the new text frame will take up the whole page (within the margins). The text will fill the page from the vertical spot where you clicked to the bottom margin (provided there is enough text) and from the left to right margins. If you click on the page, the overset text will be placed into a new text frame that will be linked to the one with the out port you just clicked on. If you click on the out port with the Selection tool (black arrow), the cursor will change to look like part of a page, with an upper left corner. If you have overset text, the out port will have a red + in it. I can help you with this issue, but it's pretty basic, and people on online forums are pretty quick to accuse newbies of not doing their homework.Ī text frame has an in port and an out port. Since you have chosen the name TheNewbie1956 for the forum, I assume you are actually a newbie to InDesign, so please allow me to suggest that you pick up a copy of Sandee Cohen's Visual QuickStart Guide for InDesign.
