Positioning an image
Wrapping text around an image
Initially, when an image is inserted into a paragraph, it behaves as if it were a character. Text
isn't wrapped around an image automatically. To make that happen, you have to change the
float property of the image to left or right. This anchors the image to the left or right,
allowing text to be wrapped around it.
Select the image (see "Selecting an element" on page550) and use the (Float left) and
(Float right) icons on the toolbar to change the position of an image within the text.
l
The Float left button aligns the image to the left. The text is positioned to the right of it and
is wrapped around the box.
l
The Float right button aligns the image to the right, with the text wrapped around it to the
left.
l
The No float button positions the image where it occurs in the text, as if it were a
character. Text is not wrapped around it.
To position an image using the menu, select the image and then select one of the options in
Format > Float.
