Span Columns is turned on. The body text's position stays put because of the align to baseline grid and the text frames' top inset: Wow, thanks for some wonderful tips, all! The above quote got me thinking about yet another solution which is even easier, I think! Easier because you don't have to think about top inset, leading, etc. and the chapter's title will also be easier to edit (editing shifted text can be hard, well, unless you use the command-y text editor, of course). I haven't tested it yet (will do that first thing tomorrow at work) but here's the main idea: let the baseline grid begin where the body text should begin! The body text starts at around 80 mm from the top and the title at around 40 mm. So: - let the frame (on every page, so only one master page needed) start at 40 mm from the top - set the baseline grid to start at 80 mm from the top - let the body text snap to the grid (this way the body text will ALWAYS start at 80 mm, no matter where the top of the frame is) - let the chapter title NOT snap to the grid (this way the chapter title will ALWAYS start at the top of the frame, in this case at 40 mm) I think that should do the trick! The chapter title will flow with the text, just as in rob day's method, without the need to adjust frames or apply various master pages and all text will start at 80 mm from the top, no matter what. BTW I already used span indeed but thanks for the suggestion anyway, lo21. I didn't use the Keep option though: never really use it but I will check it out anyway. As it is now I force the chapter title to the next text frame, also because I have to remove empty lines at the end of each chapter (so both colums will automatically align there) so I don't know if the Keep option is easier here. As I said, I haven't tried it yet so maybe I am making a thinking error (if so, let me know ) but I think this should work. If not, I'll use rob day's solution anyway. Thanks again for all the help and all those screenshots! It's really appreciated!!!
