82 Working with Text
To edit frame properties using a dialog:
1. Select the Creative frame and click the Frame Setup button on
the Frame context toolbar.
2. From the dialog, you can change the Number of columns, Gap
distance between columns, Left Margin, Right Margin, and
enable/disable text wrapping around an object.
3. To change the column widths and blinds (top and bottom frame
margins), click a cell in the table and enter a new value.
Controlling overflowing text (in HTML frames)
As HTML frames have to comply with HTML standards, they are not capable of
linking stories (as for Creative frames). As a result, a decision has to be made
about what happens in the event of overflowing text. Overflowing HTML
frames are clearly indicated—when selected, the Link button at the bottom right
of the frame indicates Overflow.
If you see this, you can choose to leave the text Hidden, let it Overflow, or let
all the text be viewable with the help of a scroll bar.
To control overflowing text:
1. Select your overflowing HTML text frame.
2. Right-click on your frame, and go to Text Format>Overflowing text
and choose:
• Hidden - The frame as it is displayed on your page will be shown
in a browser. Text will continue to be hidden.
• Overflow - The frame will overflow (be extended) to allow all
text within the frame to be shown.
• Auto Scroll bar - A navigation scroll bar is displayed only when
text overflows the frame.
• Fixed Scroll bar - A navigation scroll bar is displayed
permanently but will be grayed out if text does not overflow.
