Hey fehmann I couldn't quite follow what you are saying but you are correct.
I made a text box on Page 1 put some text in it via Copy Paste method then on a second page I made a second non linked text box and put in different text again using Copy Paste.
If I use the Document > Next Page or Document > Previous Page menu I can then select any word or selection of words using the Artistic Text Tool. This is the bug part now: Any other method of changing the page means I cannot select any text on the second page after having made a selection on the first page.
This is the 1.70.58 beta.
Having to change tools or race the cursor up to the Document menu is not good.

It is worse than you stated, and what you say is a showstopper. The rest of the pages are messed up not just the Left ones.

Major disappointment to see that tables cannot be placed inside text frames and float with the content of these.
This seems to have wandered off into the tall grass, I just want to say that I would want this (tables) and the ability to anchor other elements to specific places in the text. Not worth buying without it.
I will also say I am so far impressed with the beta's limited set of tools.

Here is another vote on GREP and GREP styles.

Hi @etageneuf
I think this may be down to the width of the text box the first time you type into it. I typed "Entreprise à Paris" and could only see a few letters at a time.
I then pressed the Enter key:
et voilà!
I had the exact same experience. In my case just looking at the Enter key didn't do the job I had to press it, some days it doesn't pay to get up.

Of course we need Picas and Points.

Hello,
I'm just introducing myself. Working on getting my head around the newer way of working. Coming from PS et al.

Hi people, thank you all for showing me something I haven't had the time to try out. Real cool feature.
