4. (Optional) Check Scale to to scale the object to a percentage of
the adjacent text point size. This keeps the same relative size if
the text size changes. 100% will scale precisely to current point
size.
5. (Optional) Check Use these settings when pasting to update
floating and inline anchor defaults. Any subsequent object
pasting will adopt the anchor settings saved when the option was
checked.
6. Click OK. The object appears inline with text, and shows an
Anchor Properties icon.
Objects inserted into text frames will automatically be anchored using "Float
with text" default settings. However, the anchored object can be dragged away
from the anchor point as an alternative method for creating an anchored object.
To view anchor properties:
1. Select an anchored object.
2. Click Anchor Properties shown under the object.
The Anchored Object Properties dialog is displayed. The options differ
depending on which of the three positioning options is enabled.
To change the position of an anchor point you can drag it anywhere else in your
text frame. Dragging to an area of no text will disconnect your anchored object.
You can also disconnect the anchor point via Anchor Properties dialog.
To disconnect an anchored object:
• Enable Detach from text. The Anchor Properties button and anchor
point both disappear.
Anchored object have all the same properties of unanchored
objects; you can modify them whilst anchored.
Frame text can wrap around floating anchored objects (see p. 139).
Inline anchored objects don’t allow text wrapping.
