1. Click on the icon in the Formatting toolbar or invoke the View > Object
Mode command to activate Object mode.
2. Select the icon for Link text frames in the Object toolbar.
3. Click on the text frame in which the text should begin.
4. Click on the text frame you want to link to the initial frame. Important: This
text frame must be empty!
5. Finally, click again on the icon or invoke the View > Object Mode command
again to exit Object mode.
Now, when you enter text in the first frame to the extent that it overflows that
frame, the text will be continued in the second frame.
You can even link together more than two frames. To do this, first link the first
frame with the second, then the second with a third, etc.
To remove an existing link, click on the first of two linked frames with the Link
text frames tool. TextMaker will then ask you if you want to remove the link.
Picture frames
A picture frame differs from a picture that is inserted directly into the text (see the
chapter “Pictures” beginning on page 211) in the following way:
Picture frames, like all other types of frames, occupy a fixed position on the page.
Thus, they do not move when you add or remove text above the frame.
In this section, you will find detailed information on working with picture frames.
