rusty5 Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 How do you manage linked text frames? For example, unlink text frames or move a link from one frame to another? Quote rusty - Macintosh: macOS Big Sur 11.1. Memory 16 GB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rusty5 Posted January 18, 2019 Author Share Posted January 18, 2019 I've watched that tutorial several times, it does not address unlinking or moving text frames after they have been created.

v_kyr Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 If you mean with unlinking removing a connection between frames (?), just select a connection handle with the move tool, the cursor icon then changes to red connection symbol and then click on a text frame. That removes the connection. - Moving aka dragging around on a page with the move tool?

MickRose Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 Removing the connection seems to flow all the text back into the first frame. But how do you keep the text in the 2nd frame and end up with 2 independent frames containing text?

walt.farrell Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 Cut the text from the second frame, break the link, paste it back?

That removes the connection. That is exactly the information I was looking for. I don't think I ever noticed the red connection symbol before. Thanks. Quote rusty - Macintosh: macOS Big Sur 11.1.
