Hello,

in Indesign in Textframes with more than one column paragraphs (f. e. captions) can be formattet in a manner that they cross the Columns (please have a look to the Line in the attached file that'S marked with "2"). In the german version of Indesign it's called "Spaltenspanne". The Text before a so formatted caption is splittet into the two columns above the Caption and the following text in the two columns underneath.

Does Affinity Publisher have such a function? I searched the paragraphs-settings but sadly unsuccessful.

Thank you for the help

Best regards

This has been requested in the past but I don’t think it’s an available option at the moment.
The developers are aware of the requests and may introduce it in the future.
If someone has a workaround then they might post it here.

Possibly a workaround – though it can get cumbersome in certain situations...

 

• MacBookPro Retina 15" |  macOS 10.14.6  | Eizo 27" | Affinity V1  
• iPad 10.Gen.  |  iOS 18.5.  |  Affinity V2.6

  • 3 years later...

Has anything happened since then or is it still not working after 4 years?

Unfortunately, nothing has changed and this functionality (split/span columns) is still not available:(
