This technique used to work for me. Back in earlier versions of InDesign, or perhaps even with PageMaker. However, I have not been able to use it for many years, and it is so frustrating! I'm sure I must have something set so it doesn't work, but I can't figure out what. If I start a new page, say 8 1/2" x 11", with .5 inch margins on all sides. I go near the top with the Text Tool, I'd like to just click where I'd like the top position to be, and InDesign will should automatically make the text frame as wide as the margins. Alas, this does not work. It ends up creating a box perhaps two or three inches wide. I'm forced to resize it manually. What am I doing wrong? What setting do I have to change?! Thank you.
