My pasteboard has split in sections

[The Goth Editor]

My pasteboard seems to have split in four sections, and it's, in turn, not showing the text in all the text boxes. It doesn't look like I have an alternate layout set up. You can see that most of the document is set up to the standards I need (the regular white pages against the non-split pasteboard).

I'm not sure what I did to trigger this happenstance.

Here is an image of the pages panel for reference.

Hi @The Goth Editor:

Is it a damaged file?

Can you restore from a back-up file? (This is why incremental back ups are so important.)

Can you use Story Editor to cut all of the text on the split-pasteboard pages, removed the blank pages and frames and then reflow from that good pasteboard point forward? Save first, and work on a copy.)

Barb,

Thank you for responding. Cutting the affected text from the Story Editor and deleting the affected pages thereafter worked. I've also saved another copy. Thank you so much!

Great news!
