walt.farrell Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 Feature requests will work better if you don't bundle them like this, but create separate topics for unrelated requests. It makes tracking them easier for Serif.

fde101 Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 On the topic of a "primary text frame", just a comment that QuarkXPress has a similar feature (they call it an "automatic text box"). On the topic of spanning text across columns, there are already other threads requesting this. Glicky 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
