If you open multiple windows for a project, make changes to that project, and then
begin closing the windows, the application will not prompt you to save the project
until you attempt to close the last window that displays the project.
Using Story Editor view
Story Editor view lets you concentrate on the text of a story without the distraction
of the layout. In Story Editor view, all text is the same size and the same font, the
text fills the entire window, and only the most basic character formatting (such as
bold and italic) are displayed. A red background indicates where text has overflowed
beyond the last text box or path in the story.
To display the contents of the active story in a new Story Editor window, select a box
or line that contains the target story and choose View > Story Editor. (If a Story Editor
window is already open, the selected item's story displays in that window.)
If you want to monitor the overall appearance of a page as you edit its text at an
easy-to-view size, you can position a Story Editor window next to a layout window
that shows the same story.

View sets
The View menu provides various options for how a layout displays. You can display
or hide guides, grids, invisible characters, visual indicators, and more. (For more
information, see "View menu.") The View Sets feature lets you store and recall different
combinations of these settings. The settings that are stored in a view set are as follows:
• View > Guides
• View > Page Grids
• View > Text Box Grids
• View > Rulers
• View > Ruler Direction
• View > Visual Indicators
