Hi community, 

 

I'm puzzeled for an hour now, on why my texte doesn't to wrap to the next line in a simple text box ?

 

example:

As soon as I reframe it, the text disappear and didn'T wrap to next line...

 

** I basically tried at first to copy text from MSword then copy it inside a text box in indesign. This undesired behavior happend. Now it does it also when I'm typing (not wrapping to next line automatically...)

 

Frustrating, 

Thanks for helps, 

Charles C.

There can be two main reasons: you have "no break" selected as part of the paragraph style —

— or in a Character Style that's applied to the text (similar menu; check the formatting list to see if a Char Style is applied).

 

You could also have a Keep Option set that is trying to keep all the lines together, or with another paragraph.
