turning off hyphenate cause text to dissapear completely / not fit

[Thijs5FFB]

Hi everybody,

I have a regular text box in Indesign filled with text, whenever I choose "no hyphenate"  the text dissapears (and the red indicator that text falls out of the box appears). Only the first sentence or two stays. When I expand the text box by a rediculous amount, 3 or 4 lines are visable. (the text contains about 20).

This happens either by setting the individual alinea styles to "no hyphenate" or by selecting all text and choosing this option from the menu).

Check to see whether 'No Break' has been applied to any of the text.

Oops! Apparently i used "no break" instead of  "no hyphenate" function... My bad, I switched software to my local language (Dutch) and the options are expressed nearly similar.

Thanks John!
