Deleting or Undoing Page Break in Affinity Publisher

[danielschenk]

When I insert a Page Break in Affinity Publisher by going to Text > Insert > Breaks > Page Breaks, the page breaks where I had my cursor. Great, because it maintains the text flow.

However, when I later decide I want to delete the Page Break, I have not found an easy way to do this. The only way to do this was by going to the History section (lower right hand corner) and deleting the action: Insert: "<PBREAK>". However, that deletes all subsequent changes or actions as well, not just the Page Break. The result is that I lose all changes and have to them, without the Page Break, of course. That's tedious. 

There must be a better way to do this? Any ideas?

Thanks, Daniel

Hi @danielschenk

You should be able to delete the character break like any other character: positioning your cursor before or after it, and using delete or backspace keys.

If you display the special charaters (spaces, tabulations...) you'll be able to see the one used for page breaks, and it'll be easier to get your cursor at the right position to delete them.

Place the text cursor just before the Page break, and press Delete. (Or, if you're on a Mac, whatever key you would use to delete in a forward direction.)

That's a great help to know how to locate existing Page Breaks. Thank much Walt, Wosven and Old Bruce.
