[1] Insert any element which may have an imagedata descendant: figure, mediaobject, etc. The name of this element must not start with "inline": inlinemediaobject, etc. Personally I always use the "Add image" button found in the DocBook tool bar to do that. [2] Select the imagedata descendant of the newly inserted element and, using the Attribute tool, set its "align" attribute to "left". > > By the way what is the semantic difference between mediaObject and > Screenshot? (Ok, that is docbook stuff J) mediaobject can contain not only images but also audio, video, etc. screenshot has a metadata child called screeninfo used to document it.
