InDesign

Redefine the purpose of paths and frames

  • To use a path or text frame as a graphics placeholder frame, select a path or an empty text frame, and then choose Object > Content > Graphic.
  • To use a path or graphics frame as a text placeholder frame, select a path or an empty graphics frame, and then choose Object > Content > Text.
  • To use a text or graphics frame as a path only, select an empty frame, and then choose Object > Content > Unassigned.
Note: When a frame contains text or graphics, you cannot redefine it using the Object > Content menu. However, the frame automatically redefines itself if you select it and replace its contents.
