okmike Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 I am doing a book, and on the bottom right-hand page the last line is a bold heading, which I do not want at the bottom: So I put a paragraph return at the start of the last line, and what does it do? It forces the paragraph return onto the top of the next page. I do not have flow settings like "keep with last" anything. I have it set for "anywhere."

walt.farrell Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 Have you tried putting the paragraph break at the end of the previous line?

Old Bruce Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 You have two paragraphs. A helpful.... and I have had.... Check the settings for each Paragaph's Paragraph style as either of these conditions could cause this. Place the text cursor in the first line of each of them in order to check the settings.

Old Bruce Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 I just checked and those two options can be overridden in a paragraph panel not just the Text Style.

okmike Posted September 5, 2022 Author Share Posted September 5, 2022 Thanks, the flow was set correctly. When I told the empty paragraph to stay with the previous paragraph, it jumped the last line of the previous page onto the new page: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
okmike Posted September 5, 2022 Author Share Posted September 5, 2022 If I cannot fix it I will just insert a photo somewhere that will push the text down to avoid the problem, but I sure need to know this because I do several books a year.

thomaso Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 Set the headline text style to keep paragraphs together, like so: . Quote macOS 10.14.6 | MacBookPro Retina 15" | Eizo 27" | Affinity V1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Bruce Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 We aren't seeing an awful lot with your screenshots. I would like to see the settings for the flow, and this is for both paragraphs. Place the text cursor into the first word of the first problem paragraph and select that paragraph's text style. Show the flow options. Repeat for the second paragraph.

okmike Posted September 5, 2022 Author Share Posted September 5, 2022 Thanks for you help, but the flow was set the same as shown for all, and nothing changed. I simply added a picture, as I had no issues when I tried adding a line on other pages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some setting is preventing the desired result. If you want, just copy 2-3 sample paragraphs (which have these two text styles) in a new text frame of a new document and upload that to the forum.
