Is there any way to split/flow anchored text boxes across pages in a long document?
Currently we have to use hundreds of anchored text boxes (with Object styles) in order to apply styles to different sections of the text. It is time-consuming but necessary to provide shaded sections across a text-thread AND to get important <div> classes for html/epub.
Imagine I have a multi-paragraphed quote in a law textbook (the paragraphs already have different paragraph styles, for example to have a citation at the end). The page flow means that the quote happens to fall at the bottom of one page and then continues onto the next. I need an object style for the background shading AND to provide a <div> class.
It would be MUCH quicker if there was an InDesign Div Styles panel where I could apply a style (with an export tag class for css) to a section that needs different styling between PDF and ePub/html versions. These sections often contain multiple Paragraph Styles so I need to add some kind of wrapper that carries styling, export tags AND splits across pages when anchored into a text thread.
