Operation Manual

54 Text
• You can import the text into a single frame, then create and link
additional frames into which the text automatically flows.
When frames are created by the AutoFlow option (for example when
importing text), they are automatically linked in sequence.
To create a link or reorder the links between existing frames, you can
use the Link button under the frame. Remember to watch the cursor,
which changes to indicate these operations.
• You can link to frames already containing text or are already in a
link sequence.
• If the frame was not part of a link sequence, its text is merged into
the selected text's story.
To link the selected frame to an existing frame:
1. Click the frame's Link button (showing
or .)
2. Click with the Textflow cursor on the frame to be linked to.
To link the selected frame to a newly drawn frame:
• As above, but instead of clicking a "target" frame, either click on the
page (for a default frame) or drag across the page (to create a frame
sized to your requirements). The latter is ideal for quickly mapping
out linked frames across different pages.
To unlink the selected frame from the sequence:
• Click on
Continued, then click with the Textflow cursor on the
same frame.
Story text remains with the "old" frames. For example, if you detach the
second frame of a three-frame sequence, the story text remains in the
first and third frames, which are now linked into a two-frame story. The
detached frame is always empty.
