Reply To: Typesetting style question

Ouch! There was something striking in my mind last night (my time) when I was reading and replying to the post from my cell phone. I was away from my Computer and hence didn’t tested it.

The feature works great if it is a single column and won’t if you make it 2 or more columns using the ‘Text Frame Options’ dialog box. The ‘Span Columns – All’ feature will keep the text span upto the frame width and won’t adapt the columns sizes. To flow the text as per the columns, you’ll make it ‘Single Column’ under the ‘Span Columns’ options and then you won’t be able to apply before/after spaces.

So you’re left with going back to the stone age… i.e. creation of multiple paragraph styles :(
