Callout Styles dialog box
You can edit the Default callout style, but you cannot delete it.
Callouts and runaround
If a callout with runaround causes its callout anchor to move, this can lead to an
error state. For example, if a callout’s runaround pushes its callout anchor to the
next page, the callout moves to the next page — which allows the callout anchor to
return to the previous page, which causes the callout to return to the previous page,
and so on.
When QuarkXPress detects this kind of a situation, the following things happen:
The callout switches to the settings defined in the Default callout style. An
1.
icon displays next to the callout style’s name in the Callout Styles palette when
the callout anchor is selected.
If the error condition still occurs, QuarkXPress applies the No Style settings to
2.
the callout and it is positioned at its last valid location.
If the application cannot find a valid location, it turns runaround off for the
3.
callout. When QuarkXPress turns off a callout’s runaround this way, it also
places this visual indicator on the callout:
To view visual indicators, check View > Visual Indicators.
To turn runaround back on for such a callout, use the drop-down menu in the
Runaround tab of the Measurements palette.
Working with tables
In QuarkXPress, a table is a distinct item, like a text box, picture box, text path, or
line. When working with tables, you can pretty much think of a cell as an
individual picture box, text box, or no-content box, and you can handle cells in
much the same way you handle these other items. To work with elements of the
table itself — such as rows and columns — use the Table menu.
