Maybe, but it would be nice to have it different, see my wishreport: 0005191: Make it possible to split and join frame with their content http://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=5191 >> Is it possible to separate one or more frames from the linking chain >> *with* their content some other way? > > You might find convenient to re-import your text in the new layout (thus > either saving it first from the SE into a seperate text file and then > use a WP to split your text Well, that is not an option because I would have to set the style on all the text again, and that took ages (literally days) the first time I did it because I have 150 pages :-/ > or by going back to your preferred WP where > the original text came from and split the text at this level, instead of > manipulating it in Scribus). Again, it took too long applying the styles, so this would be very time consuming. If just the OOo importer would have been perfect then I would not have to fiddle with them, but ... If I would have to do it again I probably would have splitted the original document in parts and imported each article separately. > What I understand is you want to split into smaller entities a somewhat > long text. There is no easier way that I know to achieve this. Sad, but true :-( I will have to try to do in anyway. Thanks for the suggestions :-) Best regards Axel Bojer
