I'm so baffled with columns and continuous section breaks - and I can't find previous discussions about it. I'm probably not wording the search question correctly, and now I'm starting to lose it!
- I have many pages of text in 2 columns.
- The pages need different headers for different sections.
- Despite section breaks (for headers), text needs to continue flowing down one column to the next without leaving white space. So there can't be part of the page left blank to continue the next section on the next page.
- Inserting a continuous section break, splits the page into 2 parts. this gives me 2 columns from one section at the top part of the page, and 2 columns from the next section at the lower half of the page. This seems like it would be very confusing to the reader who is reading straight down the column.
- If for example I need a continuous section break in the middle of the first column, is there a way to continue the text down the rest of the first column, then to the top of the second column, and onward?
I tried to use: "Don't balance columns at the start of continuous sections" but that still breaks the page up into 2 horizontal parts.
Is it a matter of just putting the section break in a different location where it won't disturb the columns??
Thank you for any help with figuring this out!
