Hi! Thanks for your help.
You understood me right. I have a couple of shapes and want to distribute them over one or more pages. I set the anchor type to "AT_PAGE" and now I have the problem that all shapes are set on the first page of the document. (The shapes should be created on the second page because on the first there is a table.) I do the following: 1. I create a shape 2. if there is enough space left on the page then I create another shape 3. if there is not enough space left I make a page break 4. another rectangle is created I don't know why the shapes are all created on the first page. Do I have to set the TextCursor or something that the shapes are created on the current page?
