Editing text by dragging and dropping
To quickly cut and paste words in your document, InDesign allows you to drag and drop
text within the same story, between frames, and between documents. You'll now use drag
and drop to move text from one paragraph to another in the magazine layout.
Tip
When you drag and drop text, by default InDesign automatically adds and
deletes spaces before and after words as necessary. If you need to turn
off this feature, deselect Adjust Spacing Automatically When Cutting And
Pasting Words in Type preferences.
