I can't create text columns of different widths
All columns within a single text box are the same size. To create columns of different widths within the same story, do the following:
How?
- On the Objects toolbar, click Text Box
or Vertical Text Box
.
- In your publication, point to where you want one corner of the text to appear, and then drag diagonally until you have the box size you want.
How?
When you connect text boxes, text that won't fit into the first text box flows into the next text box. A chain of connected text boxes, also known as a story, can span multiple pages.
Use connected boxes to:
- Continue a story in another text box
- Create columns of different widths
- Move text from the overflow area into another box
- If needed, create a new text box.
How?
- On the Objects toolbar, click Text Box
or Vertical Text Box
.
- In your publication, point to where you want one corner of the text to appear, and then drag diagonally until you have the box size you want.
- Click in the text box you want as the first text box in the story.
- On the Connect Boxes toolbar, click Create Text Box Link
.
The mouse pointer changes to a pitcher
.
- Click in the text box you want as the next in the story.
This text box is now connected to the first box and any text in the overflow area now appears in the next box.
