Dave, Olav and Harbs,

thank you for the information.

Well, somethimes there are situations in which you wish you could do that.
E.g. linking from an anchored marginal note to a new textframe on the next page.
Or linking from a textframe within a table cell to a new textframe within another table cell or to a textframe outside the table.

There should be ways to prevent linking from a textframe to its parent, that's true.
But as there are ways to prevent linking from an anchored textframe to another frame I could imagine that this should be possible to be handled, too. ;-)

And as Harbs told, you can fake it.
E.g. with the overset manager (above).
And you can fake it in such a manner that if you once have linked an anchored textframe to another you can disable the plugin without loosing this feature in the linked frames (the anchored textframe has got a real nextTextFrame).

But I do understand that one could drive into a lot of problems, trying to link from a textframe within a table cell to the textframe the table is in.

Bad news for people who have to work with longer marginal notes that should hang relative to the anchor in a text line and sometimes should be continued on next page.

Thanks
Martin
