Adobe InDesign ripple insert?

[genen25475166]

Anyone knows how to insert a frame in the middle of your storyboard frames so that the following frames/text would slide over. In Adobe Premiere this would be classified as "ripple edit".

InDesign doesn't have the concept of "storyboard frames." You're looking in the wrong application.

Do you mean putting a frame on every page of a document? If so, you'd add that to the document's master page (or one of them; you can have multiple master pages).

No. Let's say you have 6 frames per page and ten pages total. Let's say each frame has consecutive images of numbers. First frame has an image of "Number 1", second frame has an image of "Number 2" and so on. So on page 6 you would have images of numbers 30 - 36.

So here the kicker, if I wanted to insert an image with "Number 32.5" right after "# 32" I would then have to manually replace all consecutive frames, replacing images in each frame so the order continuous. Super annoying manual process.

I was wondering if there is an automatic way of telling ID to select  frames and tell them to shift the content with the help of mathematical equation. Like "Frames +1" (granted that the file names are named accordingly example "Image32.0032.jpg")

Does this makes sense.

Is there a way to do so?

if not someone in ADOBE should really implement this. It be sooooooooooooooooooo helpful.

There are other products on the market that can do that but I want to stick with ADOBE.

Not if you set it up from the start so that all those frames are anchored in a master text flow. Then, you could insert a frame anywhere and all frames downstream would advance along the flow to make room for it, just as paragraphs do when you add text.

This has a good ring to it. I do know how to set up a text flow and anchor images to text flow. But I can't wrap my brain around your suggestion. After making "Master page", what exactly would you do? Make a single text box that covers the whole page and then add my 6 anchored picture frames within. And how exactly this "master" drive the rest of the pages?  Any steps would be greatly appreciated. Thanks ahead....
