Staff MEB Posted October 15, 2018 Staff Share Posted October 15, 2018 Hi atarashiidesu, Welcome to Affinity Forums Are you able to replicate this from scratch? If so which steps have you taken? Can you detail them please? I'm having trouble reproducing this here. It would also help If you could also attach the file shown in your screenshot. Thanks.

phooph Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 I had a similar bug happen. I have 2 columns on a page with photos added. The text in the right hand column jumped to the next page about an inch above the bottom of the text frame. After inserting a new page and moving text and images to it, the same thing happened. I eventually realized it was caused by an image at the bottom of the left hand column. When I removed the image the text on the right filled to the bottom. I recreated the image frame on the left and placed the image. The same thing happened again so I deleted and made another image frame that was a bit above the desired position. When I moved it to the desired position at the bottom of the left hand column it again cause text wrap around an invisible frame in the right hand column. My fix was to just leave the image in the higher position which was not a problem for this document, but could be a real problem for one in which the image needs to be precise.

fde101 Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 @phooph, Kind of interesting that the text in the right column starts wrapping below the top of where the frame is in the left column. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mac_heibu Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 I assume, this issue has absolutely nothing to do with the initial posting. Would be better to start a new thread about this. But first have a look into the Paragraph studio and check if one of the „Flow Options is active. Especially the „Keep paragraph together“ option may be the culprit. Or – when dealing with imported/pasted text – if there are special characters (f.e. non breaking blanks) are used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fde101 Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 If you look at the text in the image where it is actually present, the cutoff is not happening at a paragraph break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mac_heibu Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 Nevertheless: It is a different issue. I’d suggest to open an extra thread, to keep this thread „clean“. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
