Godsgirl started following Text frame in a weird place , Layers , Space before and after Headings and 1 other
-
I need to edit the page to the left; I need to insert a table at the bottom of the page and allow the text to flow over to the next page. The parent layer is a Master Page. Don't know if that has any bearing, but I cannot find how to "ungroup" these layers so I can edit the page.

I have a parent layer that happens to be a Master Page. I need to edit the page on the left. I cannot find an Ungroup button. How do I proceed?

Space before and after Headings
Godsgirl replied to Godsgirl's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Thx so much! Ok, another question. In the example below, what is the double downward arrow and how do I get rid of it? I want this text frame to flow to the next text frame. When I hit Enter to add a paragraph mark, it also added this back to the end of the text. -
Space before and after Headings
Godsgirl replied to Godsgirl's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Mr. Old Bruce, that was it!!!! Thank you so much!!! I have worried for days over this thing. You are truly a lifesaver!! Oh. One more question: How do I make this change global for my Heading 2? Where exactly do I go within the Edit to do this? Thx again. -
Hello everyone. I am the one who had text flowing to and from a footer. I finally was able to unlink this text box from the rest, so hopefully everything will work correctly from this point forward. Ty to all who offered help. Now, I have another problem I can't seem to fix. I have too much space before and after my Heading 2. It has an underline and I'm not sure if that is affecting anything or not. I am using a baseline grid so my columns line up. Don't know if this is the problem or not. I have tried to read through as many forum entries dealing with this topic as I could, but nothing I do seems to work. When I change the space after from 3 to 2 under the "Edit Heading 2" under Text Styles, the spacing after the heading goes from too much to too little. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Unlinking Text Frames

Hello everyone. If you remember, I have had a terrible problem with one of my footers suddenly containing wording that should be exclusive to the regular text frames I've put into place. I think the problem I have with my footer being included in the text frame linking sequence lies with unlinking this footer (or the text frame it's linked from) from the sequence. I am trying to understand exactly what I need to do in order to make this happen. If someone could assume that I know absolutely nothing about text frames and linking (which is absolutely true), and please clarify the wording of the enclosed instructions from the Help Menu within Affinity Publisher 2. To unlink a text frame from the frame sequence: From the Tools panel, select the Move Tool. (This part is easy.) Select the text frame to be unlinked, then click the 'previous' and/or 'next' Text Flow buttons (top left or bottom right, respectively). (Exactly how do you select the text frame to be unlinked? In your mind? Click inside the frame? Highlight it? I know that you select the text frame you want to detach it from after it's selected.) Click within the frame when the unlink cursor () appears. (Click within which frame? The one you're trying to disconnect or the one you're trying to disconnect from?) When unlinking a frame in a populated frame sequence, all text after the unlink point will be placed in the previous frame, and will overflow that frame. (I don't understand this either. "all text after the unlink point", does this mean all text after the text frame you are unlinking or the text frame you are unlinking from? My problem is that this "footer" which is full of text & linked to another frame, is linked to a frame several pages up above this frame. So, I have no idea what will happen when I "unlink" the footer text frame from the other text frame.) The text frame in question is the small one at the bottom here. It is actually a footer & should not have wording in it that belongs in the regular-sized text frames. Somehow it got linked to a regular-sized text frame.

Text frame in a weird place
Godsgirl replied to Godsgirl's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
The footer text goes with the text frames before it. The beginning of that chapter (Chapter 2) begins with "Race in an...". The text was copied from Word. And, yes, the bottom frame does display a solid blue flow triangle. -

I have tried every which way to unlink this text frame from the one before it or the one after it. No matter which way I do it, the text in the text frame on the following page disappears. Help! -
Text frame in a weird place

You know what I just realized? That text frame at the bottom is actually a footer with the version number. I have no idea how my text frame wording got in there. -

Hello. Something strange is going on with my text frames. I don't know what's wrong, much less how to fix it. I just don't know what to do. Some help would be greatly appreciated. I typed in the 3 lines at the top of the right page. They continue in the box at the bottom, below the text frame (I have no idea how that got there), and then continue in the text frame on the next page. I need all these things to flow from the bottom of the text frame on the left to the frame on the right, get rid of the box at the bottom, and flow into the text frame on the next page.

Tables in Affinity Publisher 2.3
Godsgirl replied to Godsgirl's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Tysm! I did turn it off for the entire document to see if that would help, but it didn't. I found the Ignore Baseline Grid button and voila, It worked! Thank you so much! You have saved me a ton of worry!
