I would like to know if there's a way to take the overflows text from a textframe and move it to another one ? I tried something like this by testing if my textFrames.overflows was true then slicing my textFrame in two by lines, and move the second part into another textFrame but i can't acces to overflows lines.

Hi, @nicolas_6195 ,

assuming you are talking about trying develop a script that can do the copying of overflow text you should show what code you have used so far.

And describe what is happening when running your script (any error message? nothings happening? or something else?).

And you should also tell what OS and what InDesign version you are using.

Regards

Stephan

I'm using inDesign 18.3 on MacOS. I searched a bit and I find that the easiest way is to link two textFrames together to make the excess from the first textFrames moves into the second. I'm sorry if i'm not clear enough.
