    Default tracking text

    While on the whole I am enjoying InDesign much more than I did Quark, there are some things that were so easy on quark but hard to find on Indesign, though I usually do.

    At the moment,though, I am totally vext in my search to find a good way to track text through a document. In quark, you could select one box with the proper tool and then a series of lines with arrow heads and tails would show how the text flowed into and out of that box, and would show the flow through all pages.

    The equivalent must be possible in InDesign. How do I do it?

    Thank you in advance

    It's much easier in InDesign with the View > Show Text Threads. You just need one frame selected. No special tool needed.
