Hi @Dovile23072679iixd:

Is there a compelling reason you are using four frames when you could be using two threaded frames? When you use threaded frames, this can't happen.

The only thing I can think of is that the tops of the two frames are not at exactly the same height. You might try fooling InDesign by making the left frame taller and changing the text alignment in both to Bottom if having them aligned evenly at the top isn't working.

Are you working with an English language version of InDesign? If not, perhps that's causing the problem and InDesign is looking for text from right to left instead of left to right.

IF the problem is the right-to-left order, then perhaps extending the frame holding heading 2 to the right margin will solve it. Shot in the dark...
