    Agreed. Much wanted feature. So much so it’s a mystery why it wasn’t included.

    It's called Shear. It's a tool under the Free Transform tool.

    Javed,

    Paragraph borders would be a separate (and welcome) feature. This feature would apply only to paragraphs in multi-column frames and the rule would appear n the gutter only, not outside the frame. The rule position would be determined by the gutter width, no t an attribute of the paragraph.

    As I said, the question remains whether this would be a paragraph attribute or a text frame attribute. Perhaps it makes more sense as a text frame attribute.

    Javed,

    Interesting question. Would this be a paragraph-level format or an object level format? I think it should be a paragraph level format. This will allow overrides for any test that users don’t want included.

    Users should be able to select the position for the top of the line and the bottom. This should include offsets and what the point (start.end) is relative to.

    For the top of the line it should be relative to: Top of frame, Text area, Ascent, Cap Height, Leading, x-Height, or Baseline. For text-based positions it would use the highest available point.

    For the bottom line it should be relative to: Bottom of frame, Text area, or Baseline. For baseline it would use the lowest available baseline.

    The stroke options would be the same as for paragraph rules.

    PPI is the correct term. There is no debate on this subject.

    You can adjust column guides manually. You can't have different sized columns in a multi-column text frame. From your request it looks like the former is the solution you want.

    Oh, and of course they can also be used with tables, table styles, and cell styles.

    So much this. Indesign can already apply multiple character styles, as you noted. So at least some of the feature exists.

    Back in the late 1980s there was a program called Ready, Set, Go! that could do this. The implementation was powerful but clunky an unintuitive. Styles could include any feature, or leave any feature blank and there was no distinction between character and paragraph styles. This is much like how Character Styles work in InDesign, but not Paragraph Styles. In a Paragraph Style all attributes are included. But in RSG a style might include only the font. Another might include only leading. Another might include only point size. You body copy might be formatted with several styles. Changing leading globally could be done by just changing the Leading style. It was complicated, and I don’t think there was a way to make a composite style, so many styles would have to be applied where now you just use one style. I think it also didn’t handle conflicts well, so you really needed to plan things out.

    I only played with it, since we already had PageMaker, FreeHand, and QuarkXPress and I didn’t need another program that nobody was using. I remember thinking it had potential, and InDesign’s Character Styles work similarly, in that they only apply what you want (just colour, just underlining, etc.).

  10. Put "Text Frame Options" and "Text Wrap" under the Type Menu!

    No. Those commands are applied to objects, not text.
