| Oct 17, 2017 at 17:43 | comment | added | Boris Chevreau | Sorry I meant "directly in InDesign". So you mean it isn't possible to build a 6 blocks template where each separate block "flows" with the possibility to add or remove one of those 6 blocks ? | |
| Oct 17, 2017 at 17:32 | comment | added | Scott | That's not going to happen Boris. InDesign doesn't really work that way. At least not in any predictable and reliable fashion. | |
| Oct 17, 2017 at 17:32 | comment | added | Boris Chevreau | Well What I'd like is to be able to delete the whole "product block" (the blue square completely) and that product on the right goes to the left, and next ones follow. And vice-versa when adding a product, directly in Illustrator. Note that I am not 100% sure I will ever be able to use XML, hence my attempt at doing everything directly in InDesign first | |

| Oct 17, 2017 at 16:47 | comment | added | Wolff | You talk about "products rearranging on next pages when I delete or add a new one". Do you mean when you manually add/delete products (like adding/deleting letters)? Or do you mean when you add/delete products in the excel document and then rebuild/refresh the catalog? | |
