Hi :) Ah, you might have a border (called a frame probably) that goes all around the caption&picture. If you can click on the grey border then it should allow you to set wrap options there too. Regards from Tom :)

Thanks. That got me part way there. The picture is aligned to the paragraph at the right border of the page and is about half the width of the page. I needed to add space around the bottom and the left edges. I added six points to the bottom and it moved the caption down correctly, but did not move the text below the caption. I added points to the left and the text did not move at all until I added 20 points, and then the picture suddenly re-scaled to half its original size. Apparently I am in a setting for moving the caption, not the text around the picture. -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
