How to I keep paragraphs in the same column?

I am building a TLF app that uses a multi-column layout and i am trying to figure out how to force two paragraphs of text to alway be displayed together in the same column. It is basically a header and accompanying text, like so:

Chapter 2

blah blah blah...

I want to prevent  'Chapter 2' from showing up all by itself a the bottom of a column without at least the first paragraph of the chapter showing.

Is there the concept of a 'column break' or a way to force a text block to always be displayed in the same column using TLF?

Thanks,

d

We currently don't provide controls for this -- there's no way to either force a column break or prevent one. You could lay it out once where it all fits, get the height, and then make sure it doesn't get resized smaller than that. That's the best I can say for now. Column controls are cetainly something we'd like to have.
