Hi Diane,

I don't think that Peter's suggestion will work--the text won't move if the line fails (but thanks for helping, Peter!). Instead, I think you need to provide a more "solid" text reference for the move method--I've noticed that using a story does not work in all cases.

Try something like this:



theText.move(LocationOptions.atEnd,myTF.parentStory.insertionPoints.item(0));

Or:



theText.move(LocationOptions.atEnd,myTF.parentStory.texts.item(0));



...either should work.

Thanks,

Ole
