[Column configuration]

Thanks all of you! This makes a lot more sense now.. and works as expected!

Now to figure out if I can put the Headline, byline and text of an article in the same box... and have the first two spread across the columns, and the last columnized.

[Column configuration]

Thank you for pointing to that Seneca!

Mind you when I go and create a 5 column text frame I notice that

- I can not see all 5 columns' details (only 4 are visible in the screenshot)

- right hand edge scrollbar needs to be always on when needed, or the toolbox needs to grow to accommodate all the fields (preferred).

- several of the columns have different widths by default, i'm not sure why that is. I would always expect them to be the same to start!

- Toggle ui (Tab key) should be ignored once I click inside a field to edit it as normal editor behaviour is to be able to use tab to navigate between fields.
