This method is similar to anchoring to a paragraph but cannot be used with

drawing objects.

As Character

The graphic is placed in the document like any other character and, therefore,

affects the height of the text line and the line break. The graphic moves with the

paragraph as you add or delete text before the paragraph. This method is useful

for keeping screenshots in sequence in a procedure (by anchoring them as a

character in a blank paragraph) or for adding a small (inline) icon in sequence in a

sentence.

To Frame

If the graphic has been placed in a frame, you can anchor the graphic in a fixed

position inside the frame. The frame can then be anchored to the page, a

paragraph, or a character, as required.

Aligning graphics

Once you have established the anchor point of the graphic, you can decide the

position of the graphic relative to this anchor: this is called aligning the graphics.

Choose from six options: three for aligning the graphic horizontally (left, center,

right) and three for aligning the graphic vertically (top, center, bottom). Horizontal

alignment is not available for images anchored as character.

For finer control of the alignment, use the Position options on the Type page of the

Picture dialog box, shown in Figure 268.

Figure 268: Fine tuning the alignment

For both the horizontal and vertical position, start by picking the reference point in

the right hand side drop down menu, then select in the first drop down menu among

Left, Right or Center. If you select the value From left (or From top for the

vertical positioning) you can specify the amount in your selected unit of

measurement. In the example in Figure 268, the upper-left corner of the image will

be placed at 3 cm from the left margin of the page horizontally and on the top margin

vertically.

Wrapping text around graphics

The Wrap setting determines the relation between the text and the graphic. Several

possibilities are provided:

No Wrap

With this option the text is placed above and below the image but not around it.

This is the wrapping type used for most of the figures in this guide.
