[WRITER] Create an area with an inner border and text padding

[slawalata]

I want to create an area (i.e: bg white) which has an text with an inner border (a border inside an area) and text (with text padding)

I cant use text box because i want to use bullets.

Someone has suggest me to use frame and i try to use frame inside a frame.
Frame with white bg (outer frame) and another Frame (inside frame) with border and text padding.

but a frame must have a character so that i cant set my inner frame to have size almost fit with outside frame.Screen Shot 2019-03-27 at 08.47.04.png

The correct answer is given by @Grantler; addressing the “but a frame must have a character so that i cant set my inner frame to have size almost fit with outside frame”: if you set your inner frame to be anchored as character, you need not have a paragraph below it in the outer frame.

How to create :

• Create a frame with name “bg_frame” with :

• • padding → set all to zero

• Create a floating frame with name “content_frame” with:

• • Wrap → through
• • border → color = write, add a thinker border points such as 1.0 pt

• put “content_frame” above “bg_frame” and adjust position manually (with mouse) to get desired result
