Automatic text frame creation using Auto-frame
Auto-frame is an option which can be set on any frame in your
publication. Once this is set, PagePlus will automatically create new text
frames on new pages if there is too much content to fill the initial frame.
Furthermore, it will automatically remove empty text frames (and empty
pages) if content is reduced. This, alongside WritePlus, could be
considered PagePlus's 'word processing mode'.
To switch on Auto-frame:
•
With a text frame selected, on the context toolbar, from
the AutoFit Options flyout, select Auto-frame.
Now, when additional content is added to this text frame which would
otherwise overflow the frame, a new text frame of identical size is
created containing this additional content. By default, this new frame is
added to a newly created page but this behaviour can be modified (see
PagePlus Help for details).
Conversely, if content is removed from the sequence of text frames to
leave an empty frame, this empty frame is removed along with the page
it resides on (unless additional content is present on the page).
