Unthread text frames

hi
i develop an indesign extension with CS extension builder 2 and flashbuilder 4.6.
how to unthread text frames ? i don't find any method or property in textframe class...
thanks
Simon

This is a discussion for the scripting forum, however you can achieve what you want using the following code.
tFrame.nextTextFrame = NothingEnum.NOTHING;
This is a sample code in JS, i am not very proficient in AS, but you can converet this easily into AS.
In the above code snippet "tFrame" corresponds to the textframe which you require to unlink from the one it is linked to.
Hope i made the point clear, and please try to post your questions on the right forum to get good response and also help people searching help on similar issues

  • Unthreading text frames for Idiots

    I know there is a quick way to unthread text frames but for the life of me I cannot remember what it is. I know I can copy the text from the thread & start a new thread. But that seems like the slow way to do it. I swear I held the shift key down and double-clicked but can't seem to get this to work.

    Do you want to break the story into two separate frames? If so, use the Break Frame script in the Samples.
    Do you want to suck the story back into a frame. Click the outport and then click inside that frame. That breaks the story and doesn't leave you with a loaded cursor.

  • How do I unthread text frames in CS4 InDesign Mac?

    I've looked everywhere and tried what I found in Adobe help. I can't FOR THE LIFE OF ME figure out how to unthread text frames in InDesign CS4 [Mac].
    Please help. I know it must be simple.
    Thank you,
    Margot

    Run the SplitStory scipt thats in the samples in the scripts panel.
    A waord of caution, though. Splitting a threaded story caused ID to treat the text at the top of each frame as a new paragraph, even if it was caninued from a previous frame. This can result in unwanted changes like an indent, if such is called for in the paragraph style, or an extra number or bullet item in a list.

    hi
    thanks for your reply but it doesn't work because i want to keep the text in all textframe. I found a solution in 2 time duplic and remove :
    function unstory(qui:Document){
      for each(var stori in qui.stories){
       if(stori.textContainers.length>1){
      duplic(stori);
      remov(stori);
    function duplic(myStory){
                                  var myTextFrame;
                                  //Duplicate each text frame in the story.
                                  for(var myCounter = myStory.textContainers.length-1; myCounter >= 0; myCounter --){
                                            myTextFrame = myStory.textContainers[myCounter];
                                            myTextFrame.duplicate();
    function remov(myStory){
                                  //Remove each text frame in the story. Iterate backwards to avoid invalid references.
                                  for(var myCounter = myStory.textContainers.length-1; myCounter >= 0; myCounter --){
                                            myStory.textContainers[myCounter].remove();

  • Break two threaded text frames into 2 separate unthreaded text frames

    I have the most trouble with this.  CS4.
    What I'm wanting to do is separate two sections, if this is the same answer.  I want my sections stand alone, unthreaded. Thanks!!!!!

    In your scripts panel you'll find one under Application > Samples called Break Frame.  Select the frame and click that.  Done!

  • After unlink or unthread the last text frame, it still points to the old story

    Hi,
    I used 'kTextUnlinkCmdBoss' to unlink the last text frame from the thread, however, after the command is processed if I access the textModel of the box as follows it still points to the old model:
    InterfacePtr<IGeometry> srcgeometry(srcbox,UseDefaultIID());
    if(srcgeometry==NULL) break;
    InterfacePtr<IMultiColumnTextFrame> srctextframe(srcbox.GetDataBase(), Utils<IFrameUtils>()->GetTextFrameUID(srcgeometry), UseDefaultIID());
    if(srctextframe==NULL) break;
    InterfacePtr<ITextModel> srctextmodel(srctextframe->QueryTextModel());
    if(srctextmodel==NULL) break;
    Is there any way to force refresh the textModel info related with the text frame? Of course, if I checked the textModel later, it's properly assigned with new one, it's just problem of the info is not refreshed on the same execution cycle.
    Thanks,
    Doil

    Hi Dirk,
    Thanks for the response. I tried the following, however, it didn't work, it still returns the same result:
    InterfacePtr<IHierarchy> fh(thebox,UseDefaultIID());
    ASSERT(fh);
    if (!fh) {
    break;
    InterfacePtr<IHierarchy> multiColumnItemHierarchy(fh->QueryChild(0));
    ASSERT(multiColumnItemHierarchy);
    if (!multiColumnItemHierarchy) {
    break;
    InterfacePtr<IMultiColumnTextFrame> mctf(multiColumnItemHierarchy, UseDefaultIID());
    ASSERT(mctf);
    if (! mctf) {
    break;
    UID storyUID = mctf->GetTextModelUID();

  • Untread Text Frames without losing text in the second frame

    I probably not gonna use the right terms to express my question because I don't have an english version of ID. I'm sorry for that.
    If you, for example, import a text document into your column-based layout, you are able to automate the text flow and it will flow into the columns. At the end of each frame there's a text-handler (threading text) that shows you where the text continues in the next frame.
    I wanna know if there's a possibility to unthread text AND leave the text into the first column and the rest of the text into the next column WITHOUT being connected like before. If I try this I get a red plus-sign at the end of the first frame showing me there more text and the next frame ends up without text.
    I can cut the text from behind the plus-sign and paste it into the next frame, okay. But there's something in my memory telling me it was already possible with Pagemaker to simply disconnect frames and leave the text intact.
    I hope somebody understands my question?

    Try to open Object style with no document open, double click on none then close and open indesign. Every frame after this process will be without border.
    This is only correct for new created document, not for existing ones. If the problem existis in an existing document you have to change the default style with no object selected.
    I would strongly recommend to create its own basic styles for each category and load them into the several style panels to have always styles with the same name in every document which makes exchange of items easier.
    Default Object styles are those with the small rectangle graphic at the right. The one with the T ist for Text frames, the one without T for Image Frames.

  • Text will NOT align to top of text frame

    The text is low in the text frame even though the vertical justification is set to align TOP in the text frame options and the first baseline offset is set to Ascent in baseline options. There is no baseline shift or inset set and align to baseline grid is NOT selected. Any ideas how to fix it so the text is at the top of the box? Thanks!

    @gtingley – did you try:
    1. Copy/Paste the text frame to a fresh document?
    2. Export as IDMS (snippet) file and place it again?
    Just out of fun, did you try to copy/paste the text to a new text frame? Is a object format applied to the text frame? (Just fishing in the dark.)

  • Some pages use master text frame, others don't. Fix?

    It turns out in my document, some of my pages have a master text frame and others don't. Many don't. It must be the way I created the frames, accidentally creating independent frames. Is there a fool proof way not to accieentally create independent frames and is there a good way to make sure all these pages with independent frames are turned back into master text frames?
    What I can do is delete the independent frame, then link the previous frame to the inside of the master text frame (I think I used to drop the link on a ruler too often and that creates an independent frame that is in most cases indistinguishable from a master text frame). This is tedious to do for the entire document. Is there an easier way?

    It sounds like you understand what happened. Clicking the place gun cusror on any type of guide will ignore your master frames. Overriding a master text frame before placing the text and Shift-clicking in the overridden frame will also ignore the master frames on subsequent pages.
    The bes thing you can do is keep your eyse open to watch the shape of the cursor. If ID is going to use an existing frame the cursor will be surrounded by parentheses and a new frame will use a cursor with a square upper left corner. You should also develop the habit of clicking in empty areas away from guides if you are using existing frames -- you don't need to click at the top of these frames.
    It's also possible that you did everything correctly and you are working in a facing pages file and at some point added or deleted a single page somewhere other than the end. That would cause all following pages to switch sides and master objects would be reapplied behind any overridden frames.
    There is no easy way to deal with extra frames. If they are not causing a problem you may be able to simply ignore them.

  • Set top and bottom inset spacing values in Text Frame Options via jsx script

    I am looking for a way to set the top and bottom inset spacing values only to 2 points in Text Frame Options via a .jsx scrpt.
    For years, I have used a script that sets Preferences, such as:
    with(app.storyPreferences){
        opticalMarginAlignment = false;
        opticalMarginSize = 12;                // pts
    I would like to add the code to this same script that would make Top = 0p2 and Bottom 0p2 but leave Left and Right as 0p0.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Here is the full .jsx file that we now use to set preferences.
    Ideally, this could be modified to include setting any text frame created to have 0p2 inset Top and Bottom, but 0p0 Left and Right:

  • InDesign Text frame options - how to reset?

    Working in InDesign CC 2014.
    I have somehow set my text frame options so that when I use the type tool to create a text frame, columns are added as I make the box wider.
    I know that I want Columns - Fixed number of 1, because I  have found the settings I want by opening a new doc and creating a basic text frame and looking at the settings.
    In my working doc, when I change the text frame option settings, they will not "stick" and I can only create text frames with columns, and the width increases incrementally.
    Only way I can make the basic text frames I want is to copy a basic empty frame from a new doc and paste into my working doc.
    How can I get the settings I make to "stick"?
    Thanks!

    Open the Basic Text Frame Object Style, and fix your column settings there. Your new text boxes are based on those settings.

  • Object - Text Frame Options

    Why do my Object, text frame options, inset spacing settings change when I close and open my document.I set my inset spacing to 0.125 an all and when I close the document and open it later it is all set back to 0.  Any suggestions?  My defalut settings are 0.125

    I did this.  I open in design but no doc's set inset to .125 and  then open a doc and it is set to 0.125.  I use it and save it when I open it again it is set at 0.  But the pages I created previously are set to 0.125.  Could it be something else in a default somewhere?

  • Text Frame Options. Room for Side Heads added without warning

    Hi -
    I just got asked this and have no clue how to help. Anyone know what this is?
    Every now and then, my Frame file will –apparently on its own – reset most of its text frames into having room for side heads.  Makes for lots of bad labels on graphics – everything’s suddenly offset and scrolling off the bottom.
    This will happen suddenly.  It will usually be only one or two chapters in a book, but if I ignore it has been known spread like the black death throughout the book.
    The only solution I’ve found so far has been to revert to a backup or touch each text frame individually.  Setting properties for two at a time messes up location on the page.

    HI -
    Here's what I heard back.
    I believe it’s for everything except main text flow, including headers&footers on master pages, and special elements on unused master pages.
    It appears to be spontaneous, but I can’t guarantee that.
    I don’t use MIFs, and I’m pretty sure no one else does.
    Yes to formatting imports , because we frequently change variables in one chapter and copy them back to the rest (esp date doc was last edited – not same as print date per our regulatory agency.)   Likewise conditional text.  We know not to copy from a file into itself in a book, although it has happened and we do exchange manuals between revisions at times.

  • Text Frame Options

    Hi, I am using CS6 in Saudi-Arabia. When I put a new text frame with more than one column on a page, the cursor automatically jumps to the right column. In English texts I can't get it to start on the top of the left column. Who can help?
