Breaking the link to a composition layout

If your QuarkXPress project contains a Composition Zones item linked to a composition layout in another project, you might want to use the Composition Zones item for a different purpose, without receiving updates when changes occur in the project that contains the composition layout. When you break the link, the Composition Zones item remains in the shared content library and is still available in the Shared Content palette.

To break the link between a Composition Zones item and its corresponding composition layout:

  1. Choose File > Collaboration Setup.
  2. Select the composition layout in the Linked Layouts tab, and click Break Link.
  3. Click Done. The composition layout is removed from the Linked Layouts tab, and a new composition layout is added to the Shared Layouts tab of the Collaboration Setup dialog box. The composition layout remains in the shared content library.
