Testo coincatenato flusso automatico

Ciao a tutti!
Sto riscontrando un problema con InDesign che prima non avevo. Quando impaginavo un libro, mi bastava incollare un testo lungo in un box, e automaticamente InDesign creava da solo le pagine successive, facendo apparire tutto il testo nel documento.

Ora questa funzione sembra non essere più attiva: incollando un testo lungo, il programma non crea più automaticamente le nuove pagine e il testo resta tronco.

Qualcuno sa dirmi se c'è un'impostazione da riattivare o se è cambiato qualcosa con gli ultimi aggiornamenti?
Grazie in anticipo!

Hi @Aurora.MA another possibility is the Smart Text Reflow option in preferences? And the Primary Text Frame?

I believe I have used those options to achieve a similar behaviour to what you describe.

Hi @Aurora.MA,

 

Thanks for sharing this with us! It sounds like you're referring to the "auto-flow" feature in InDesign that automatically creates new pages and links text frames when placing a long text. By default, this doesn't happen when you just paste text into a text box - it only works when you place (File > Place) the text and then use Shift + click on the page. Holding Shift while clicking the loaded text cursor activates "auto-flow," allowing InDesign to automatically add pages and flow the text across them.

If this was working for you earlier with just copy-paste, it might be that the frames were already pre-threaded or master pages had threaded frames set up, which gave that impression.

I'd suggest trying File > Place, then holding Shift when you click - this should bring back the behavior you're looking for. Let me know if this helps or if you see anything different on your setup, along with your InDesign version and OS.

 

Looking forward to your update!
