Hello

I did some links from images to text, for export in ePub. I saw. that it was wrong and now I want to remove them. How can I do it from the link-panell, or in a different way?

Thinking again about what you said, you may be mixing up "linking" with "anchoring" a picture into text. This is often necessary when you're creating a reflowable EPUB. This is called anchoring (as shown below):

If you have have Frame Edges turned on (View > Extras > Show Frame Edges), when anchored you'll an anchor icon on the picture:

To unanchor, right-click on the picture and choose Anchor > Release.

You need to be clearer about what you mean by "links from images to text"? What do you mean by that—placed images, hyperlinks, what?

Also what version of InDesign are you using?

I know, if I insert pictures next to the text, I have to link them to the text, because I want to export it to ePub later. I made these links, some were wrong, happens and now I want to delete these links. How can I do that?

from indesign. in the hyperlinks panel. select the object that has the link in indesign. The hyperlinks panel will not highlight the hyperlink associated with that object. Click the trashcan in the hyperlinks panel and the link will be removed.

Yes, I did mixing up "linking" with "anchoring".!

For what I need Frame Edges and how can I do this?

I'm sorry it's the first time I try to make an eBook, but thank you very much for your answer.

View > Extras > Show Frame Edges. If you also choose View > Extras > Show Text Threads, you'll also see connecting lines between the image and the text (as shown in the illustration I provided).

That's the official way to release the Anchor. A shortcut I learned from Ann-Marie is

  1. Select the image with the Selection tool
  2. Cut
  3. Paste
