Feature request : multi-line Dynamic Captions

Hi all,

I know for sure that Multi-line dynamic captions is not implemented in InDesign. Any Caption that overflows the caption text box will be squashed into overlapping characters to fit in a single line. In my option this renders Dynamic Captions almost unusable, or useless. Having to turn dynamic captions to static captions in order to correct this makes it ironically deceptive and useless too.

I know there are some third party attempts bujt they are a bit old and not maintained to my knowledge.

Could we make this work ?

Many Thanks

M

Hi Federico,

I would not bet on this. It's already three years in the backlog…

Hope, that you and OP mbrch has voted. I already did.
