I understand how to control widowed and orphaned lines when the text is free-flowing within a paragraph, with line ends determined by OOo. However, I'm producing a song-book where end-of-line control is necessarily mine, not automatic.
I'm having trouble finding a satisfactory way of preventing song titles, single/double lines of verses, and 'chorus' and other labels from appearing alone at start or end of page. If I end a line with a simple 'return', that's means each line is a new paragraph for OOo, and the widow and orphan control doesn't apply (at least not in any useful way). If I use shift-return, OOo treats the whole such as a unit, and refuses to split at all across page boundaries. The only way I can see at present is to manually format the whole lot with return, shift-return and 'keep with next para'; but obviously changes to the text are then a nightmare! I assume someone, somewhere must have met this already - is there something obvious I'm missing please? Or are there any other thoughts on laying out verse so page splits behave reasonably? -- various incoming sites blocked because of spam; see http://www.scottsonline.org.uk for a list and openpgp crypto key (key fingerprint 2ACC 9F21 5103 F68C 7C32 9EA8 C949 81E1 31C9 1364) [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mike Scott, Harlow, Essex, England --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
