Query on paragraph prrperties for a specific sentence
Hi Framers: I need to attach "a top of column" tag to a specific string of text, e.g "name of person". I can do this in PageMaker but am a newbie to Framemaker and am battling at the bottom of the learning curve. Newbie Shell Robert C.-H.

Query on paragraph prrperties for a specific sentence
If this is something you're going to do repeatedly, you should create a new paragraph tag from the existing tag. On the new tag's Pagination tab, specifies its position as "top of column." If it's a once-in-a-great while exception, put the cursor in the paragraph and either right click or pull down the Special menu. Select Page Break, then pull down the location menu and select "top of column" Art -- Art Campbell art.campbell at gmail.com "...

Query on paragraph prrperties for a specific sentence
In FrameMaker, text flow and positioning properties are associated with named paragraph formats (paragraph tags) or applied to individual paragraphs as format overrides (which are generally considered to be a poor practice because they compromise your ability to change the appearance of your documents by importing formats from templates or other documents). To set a paragraph to appear at the top of its column, start with the insertion point in the paragraph in question. Then open the Paragraph Designer (Format>Paragraph>Designer or Ctrl+M) and choose the Pagination property tab. In the "Start" list box, choose "Top of column". But now comes the crucial step, which how you wish to apply this formatting. If the paragraph you are using for your "name of person" string already has its own paragraph tag, you can click "Update All" to associate the start at top of column property with that paragraph tag and apply the formatting to all such paragraphs. If the name string is in a paragraph that has some generic tag (e.g. Body), you should define a new, specialized tag that incorporates your formatting by clicking the Commands button and choosing "New Format". Or you can take the quick and dirty approach of applying the top of column property as a format override for this specific paragraph by clicking the "Apply" button.
