WW command description

Description: This command has 2 two distinct usages : - for overriding a frame from a master in a given page - for simulating auto flow; which means text frames are automatically created and linked (pages are also added if necessary) to ensure a whole article is visible in a document. This requires the command to be used in pair with FW command (see exemple). In this mode there are two preconditions : the master frame passed in second parameter must be a text frame in a 2-pages master, linked to another text frame on the opposite page.

Syntax: [ WW =  Page  ;  MasterBlock#  ;  OverridenBlock#  ;  AutoFlow    ]

Page
Integer 		• Absolute number of the page into which the frame has to be overriden.
     
MasterBlock#
Integer 		• Master block reference (must be a block from a master)
     
OverridenBlock#
Integer 		• Reference assigned to the overriden block
     
AutoFlow
Boolean 		  TRUE -> auto flow mode, the next call to FW will start the automatic creation of pages and linked text frames so that there is no more overset text. FALSE -> frame override mode, the command is just used for creating an overriden frame
     

Note: The overriden frame becomes the current frame.

Example: - Auto Flow mode : [WW=1;2000;2001;TRUE] A very long text comes here... [FW] This creates an overriden text frame referenced as 2001, from the text frame referenced as 2000 which is placed on a master, and must be linked to another text frame placed on the opposite page of the same master. The text following the WW command is flowed into the frame 2001, the FW command call starts the automatic creation of text frames linked to each other, of pages if necessary, so that the text is entirely visible.
