F-01 Options - Labels

For StoryLink to be able to connect the articles and their elements (superscript, headline, subtitle, the article...) from StoryEditor to the belonging frames in InDesign, these frames must be correctly labeled (defined).

That means that every single one of them has to have the label corresponding to the label of a written article. Also, when creating the templates (Template) every part of the page has to have defined position of the article and its elements (so the system, when creating article from the template can recognize the elements of the article and how many text characters each element contains). The labeling itself can be done by selecting multiple frames on the InDesign page.

Set Label to Selected Frames

Position Type - defines the position of the article (Article Position) and the position of the elements along the article (Element Position). E.g. - the main article on the page will have the position A, the next important will have the position B, the next will have the position C (positions don’t have to be defined according to importance of the articles, but can be defined according to the order of display on the page). If the main article (article’s position A) has a frame, lead and a quote, then the frame will have the Article position A, Element Position A; lead will be Article position A, Element Position B, and the quote Article position A, Element Position C. That way when creating the template, the system will be able to connect the frames with the articles. position A, Element Position C. That way when creating the template, the system will be able to connect the frames with the articles.
