Paragraph Borders and Shading - Keep in Frame
I use a P Style for a Tip paragraph in my Quick Reference Cards (QRC). The Tip is typically one or two sentences, and has a light shading (light grey) with a top and bottom blue border. I use a similar style for Warnings, except I change the borders to red. Occasionally, the Tip/Warning falls at the top or bottom of a column, and the Border, and sometimes the Shading, lands outside the text frame.
Can we have a "Keep in Frame" for Borders and Shading, similar to the one for P Rules? David Blatner had a great workaround when I reached out to him on Twitter; add a P Rule with 0pt, and the Color of None, add appropriate Offset, and turn on Keep in Frame. It works, but it's many steps, where a check box would be much quicker.
Thanks!

Yes, we need that feature for sure. I'm using a workaround with paragraph rules, but a checkbox will be great!

Yes please! We currently only have "Clip To Frame" in the shading options. Which is NOT the same thing as "Keep In Frame" because it doesn't MOVE the shading down into the frame—it merely cuts it off.
