WebPlus Essentials User Guide - Serif

80 Working with Text
To delete a frame:
• Select the frame and press the Delete key. (If there's a selection point
in the text, pressing Delete will remove characters after the cursor.)
You can select, move, and resize text frames just like other objects. (See p. 117,
121, and 122, respectively.)
Putting text into a frame
You can put text into an HTML or Creative frame in one of several ways. For
HTML frames, text will be converted to compliant HTML code.
WritePlus story
editor: With a selected frame, click WritePlus on the
Frame context toolbar.
Importing text: Right-click on a frame and choose Text File... (shortcut
Ctrl+T) to import text.
Typing into the
frame:
Pasting via the
Clipboard:
Select the Pointer Tool, then click for an insertion point
to type text straight into a frame, or edit existing text.
(See Editing text on the page on p. 88.)
At an insertion point in the text, press Ctrl+V.
Drag and drop: Select text (e.g., in a word processor file), then drag it
onto the WebPlus page.
If you drop onto a selected frame, the text is pasted
inline after existing text. Otherwise, a new frame is
created for the text.
Creative frame setup and layout
The frame layout of a Creative frame controls how text will flow in the frame.
The frame can contain multiple columns. When a frame is selected, its column
margins appear as dashed gray guide lines when values for column blinds and
margins are defined. Note that unlike the page margin and row/column guides,
which serve as layout guides for placing page elements, the frame column
guides actually determine how text flows within each frame. Text won't flow
outside the column margins.
