Remove page break from FM2019?

At some point while formatting a document I insterted a page break... I think and now after editing the document I am left with an odd un-natural gap in text I played around with the pagination and I enabled text symbols to see if I could figure out what was causing this and at this point anything I have tried is not doing anything for correcting the issue.

    Hi Dustin,

    The size of the anchored frame is too big to fit in the available space on this page. The anchored frame is staying with the paragraph, but since the entire paragraph won't fit, the paragraph format Widow/Orphan Lines value (set to 1) is splitting the paragraph between the pages. Set this value to 2 and that will move the entire paragraph to the next page. Or, shrink the size of the anchored frame until everything fits on the first page.

     

    Hope this helps,

    tom

      Moving that anchored frame is as simple as adding a return after the Mode) part - then apply a paragraph tag like Body so that it doesn't try bulleting it. If it doesn't fix it, just Undo the action.

      Unstructured FM doesn't actually have a page break object, so historically, when you used the tool that simulated it, what it was really doing was an override to the paragraph being forced to the next page, consisting of setting
      Pagination » Start: Top of Page

      Undoing that, or removing overrides generally from that format usually fixes the problem.

        Bob_Niland:

        I checked for the pagination setting  >> start: top of page and that is not invoked. I have come across that before and have fixed that. In this instance there is an anchor that is determining its placement what I am not sure of is to how to move the anchor so it forces that line up with the rest of the instructions. Any information on how to change the position of the anchor?

        Do you have an anchored frame attached to the end of the text that reads "...AHCI Mode)." ? 

        Maybe move it [the AF] to the next line and see if that "snaps" it [the text] back up into place?

        Yes there is an anchor there but I am not sure how to move it... How would i go about moving the anchor (Upside down T) in a place that would move the rest of that text up to the previous page?
