Hi Ziqiao, thank you for looking at the project and for the feedback. My word processing app requires containers of differing width in order to fulfill its core functions. I know Apple's own Pages app supports documents that flow continuously with varying numbers of columns with widths that the user can set arbitrarily. And Apple's own documentation of NSLayoutManager / NSTextContainer mentions multi-column text (https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/documentation/TextFonts/Conceptual/CocoaTextArchitecture/TextSystemArchitecture/ArchitectureOverview.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40009459-CH7-SW4). Text Kit 2 doesn't yet support more than one text container, so that's not an option for me yet and I can't migrate to Text Kit 2 until they support container / page breaks. I would love for this issue to be elevated. This is an actual and serious bug in Text Kit!
