------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wed Jan 4 07:12:37 -0800 2006 ------- When =>2 frames are linked together, the link is not evident to the reader. This is true especially if he is reading a PRINTED version of this document, because then he is not able to click on one of the frames and trace the line running between the two frames. Documents like brochures and newsletter may contain several frames closely located toghether, and some of them may be linked (to allow text flow between them). In such cases the reader will face difficulty in locating the next/prvious frame that contains the running article. Note that Writer allows frames to be linked even if they are several pages apart. But it does not allow the author to insert page numbers for this continuation. The reader is left to his own devices where to find the rest of the text! So, if Frame-1 is linked to Frame-2, Writer should allow the author to insert "To be continued on page y" type sentence at the bottom of Frame-1. >> Where y is a field that shows the page number of Frame-2; and is kept updated by Writer. For example, if the frame-2 is moved around, Writer should update the value of y automatically. Secondly, Frame-2 should have another sentence at the top: "Continued from page x" >> Where x is a field that shows the page number of Frame-1; and is kept updated by Writer. For example, if the frame-1 is moved around, Writer should update the value of x automatically. **************** In a multi-column document, also include a reference to column number. These sentences could be linked to captions of frames. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
