Hello all,
I have a scenario that I cannot find any information on solving. In my document, I have a Header paragraph style that is applied to the first line of a text box. The body copy (with its own style) runs onto a new page via a threaded text frame. I would like the first line to repeat at the top of this threaded text frame, with the Header style applied, and ideally with ” (continued)” after the text.
Example: The document has references listed (these are not footnotes, just references because it’s a science publication). So “References” is the first line of the text frame, using the Header style. Following is the body copy, which threads over onto a new page (new text frame). I would like “References (continued)” to automatically show up at the top of this second text frame, regardless of what text begins the threaded frame (i.e. if I adjust the flow, “References (continued)” should always be at the top of that frame).
I could just enter the repeated title manually, but then if the text reflows I will have to manually adjust. And, this is Indesign! There should be a way to do this. I have been playing with text variables, thinking that has to be the ticket, but I cannot figure it out. I’m also thinking GREP may come into play somehow, although my knowledge there is pretty basic. Thanks for any help or direction you can provide.
Regards,
Joe Bruce
