Reply To: Align tops of columns with rule above

Hi Dwayne,

Thanks for all your questions. For the record. I’m not wild about baseline grid. I’m not sure it’s necessary.

1. Rule pops outside of the text frame. Is there a way to keep it inside? That might solve my whole problem.

2. Hard to answer. Ideally, I don’t use baseline grid alignment. That way, all tops of text frames and tops of text, regardless of size, would align. I know this isn’t everyone’s preference. But you either gotta pick baseline or top of text, right? : )

3. Ideally, I’d like the regular text column (top of text) to align with the rule above the head in the other column.

4. I need to nudge the head-with-rule-above down about 4-6 pixels.

I have a small screenshot you can take a look at. I’m at jane (at) allegro-design (dot) com
