Affinity Publisher Text Frames

[rusty5]

How do you manage linked text frames? For example, unlink text frames or move a link from one frame to another?

See the Publisher tutorials (Linked text frames etc.).

I've watched that tutorial several times, it does not address unlinking or moving text frames after they have been created.

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?

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]

Cut the text from the second frame, break the link, paste it back?

That is exactly the information I was looking for. I don't think I ever noticed the red connection symbol before. Thanks.
