In Background
Similar to Wrap Through, but the image is placed below the text so
there may be no need to change the transparency to make the text
visible.
Note
The No Wrap option found in the pop-up menu of a picture is
equivalent to the Wrap Off menu item in the Format > Wrap
menu.
The wrap format is normally selected after the anchoring and the
alignment of the picture have been decided. To set the position of an
image to the the desired wrap format, follow these steps:
1) Select a graphic by clicking on it.
2) Right-click to display the pop-up menu and move the mouse
pointer to Wrap to display the available wrap formats.
Alternatively you can select Format > Wrap from the main
menu.
3) Select the desired wrap format.
Note
When anchoring a graphic as character, you can only adjust
the distance between the image and the text, but no wrapping
option is displayed.
To fine tune the wrapping options, open the Picture dialog box and
select the Wrap page shown in Figure 262. For images you can open
this dialog box by selecting Format > Picture from the main menu or
right-click and select Picture from the pop-up menu. For drawing
objects, you can access the Wrap page by selecting Format > Wrap >
Edit in the main menu or right-click and select Wrap > Edit from the
pop-up menu . This dialog box is divided into three sections.
In the top part you can select among the wrap types mentioned above,
plus two additional wrap formats that prevent the text from filling the
area to the left (After) or to the right (Before) of the picture. Use the
Spacing section of the page to adjust the spacing between the image
and the text. The contents of the Options section of the page may
change depending on the selected wrap format.
New Paragraph
Check this box if you want OOo to start a new paragraph after the
image even if it could still wrap around the image.
In background
This option becomes available if Through Wrap is selected; it
moves the image in the background.
