Hey team, 

Any way to cycle next styles after a page break? I.e heading > body copy > PAGE BREAK > heading > body copy etc…

Thanks

A paragraph style can have a Keep Option > Start Paragraph ... On Next Page; On Next Even Page; on Next Odd Page. You don't have to type/insert the Page Break command, the paragraph style does it for you.

Thanks Mike, 

What I'm trying to do is tell it to cycle a few times through a paragraph style and then onto the next. For example I have a heading, leading into a smaller heading, then into a lead in and then into body. However the content that I'm working with has a variety of paragraphs in the body and so it gets tricky to cycle back to the next heading when a new section starts. 

Hope that makes sense!

The keep settings have an option to keep with previous and to keep with next. 
I had to create an address book where all entries had to keep together and if not enough room is available they start with a new name in the next column. This done without any page break character or style.
