Frame's lame callouts

[Susan Modlin]

I also use a text frame, but take it one step further with a FrameScript that inserts a text frame in an anchored frame, sizes it, and sets the paragraph tag for me.

My solution for this is creating a paragraph tag (Callouts) and using
 the Text Frame tool to draw a little text box for the callout. Doing
 this also enables us to insert cross-references for callouts, which adds
 similar navigation to graphic hotspots.  ;-)

Callouts created with the drawing tools cannot be manipulated with 
named styles because they are not paragraphs in the text flow. They
are lines of characters in a graphic frame which is entirely separate
from the text flow even though it is surrounded by it.
