Column Split issue

HI,
I applied a split column to bullets with large text (more than 50% of the page), causing ID to break the sentence and jump the remaining text to the next column. Notice that with short sentences, ID works well. Any idea will be appreciated.

Correct answer Brad @ Roaring Mouse

If you don't want your bullets to split, you need to modify the Keep Options in the paragraph style assigned to them. Edit your style and change your Keep Options to Keep Lines Together > All Lines in Paragraph, otherwise, they will break according to the widow/control settings below it (in my case Start 2 lines, End 2 lines)

You can also just change the Keep Options on the fly for a single paragraph by clicking in it and changing the options for it alone as an override instead of editing the Style in case you have reasons for not chnaging all your bullets.
