If there is a solution I would love to hear it. What I've done is to create a paragraph tag with a tiny font and no space above/below and use that tag before or after the text inset to minimize the space between it and the preceding/next paragraph. What will happen if you don't do that is, for example, cross-references to a heading following a text inset will always appear to be broken. > > 2.
