Frame Properties dialog box

 

Settings
Free blocks	Enter the names of the free blocks you want to add. Before frame – Add a free block before all blocks in the frame. After frame – Add a free block after all blocks in the frame. Before overflow – Add a free block at the bottom of the frame, on the current page before a page break. After overflow – Add a free block at the top of the frame, on the following page after a page break.
Priority level	The StreamServer processes frames in the order in which they appear in the Process view, from top to bottom. You can change the processing order by using drag-and-drop, or by assigning priority levels (0, 1, etc.) to the frames. The frame with the lowest value will be processed first. Frames with the same priority will be processed according to the order in the Process browser.
Overflow zone boundary	Enabled when any of the blocks have the page break mode set to Break between lines in a field. The Overflow zone boundary and the bottom of the frame create a window that determines how many lines to move to the next page after a page break. See Widow and orphan rows. Specify the distance (in grid units) from the top of the frame. You can also let a variable determine the distance. Note: To let these values change depending on if a corresponding frame is modified in another page type, you must enable Suppress frame overflow zone synchronization, see Page Setup dialog box.
Retain frame data	Retain frame data from the previous page. When a frame is filled, a new page is triggered. New data will be added to the frame on the new page until the frame is filled, and so on. If the PageOUT configuration contains two or more frames, one frame will cause the page break, and the rest of the frames will most likely not be filled. By default, no data from the previous page will be retained in any of the frames after a page break.
Ignore frame boundaries	Do not crop text that extends outside the vertical frame borders.
