<p>The <b>Wrapping Style</b> option determines the way the object is positioned relative to the text. You can change the text wrapping style for inserted objects, such as <ahref="../UsageInstructions/InsertAutoshapes.htm"onclick="onhyperlinkclick(this)">shapes</a>, <ahref="../UsageInstructions/InsertImages.htm"onclick="onhyperlinkclick(this)">images</a>, <ahref="../UsageInstructions/InsertCharts.htm#"onclick="onhyperlinkclick(this)">charts</a>, <ahref="../UsageInstructions/InsertTextObjects.htm"onclick="onhyperlinkclick(this)">text boxes</a> or <ahref="../UsageInstructions/InsertTables.htm"onclick="onhyperlinkclick(this)">tables</a>.</p>
<h3>Change text wrapping for shapes, images, charts, text boxes</h3>
<p>To change the currently selected wrapping style:</p>
<li>switch to the the <b>Layout</b> tab of the top toolbar and click the arrow next to the <imgalt="Wrapping icon"src="../images/wrapping_toptoolbar.png"/><b>Wrapping</b> icon, or</li>
<li>right-click the object and select the <b>Wrapping Style</b> option from the contextual menu, or</li>
<li>right-click the object, select the <b>Advanced Settings</b> option and switch to the <b>Text Wrapping</b> tab of the object <b>Advanced Settings</b> window.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>select the necessary wrapping style:
<ul>
<li>
<p><imgalt="Wrapping Style - Inline"src="../images/wrappingstyle_inline_toptoolbar.png"/><b>Inline</b> - the object is considered to be a part of the text, like a character, so when the text moves, the object moves as well. In this case the positioning options are inaccessible.</p>
<li><p><imgalt="Wrapping Style - Square"src="../images/wrappingstyle_square_toptoolbar.png"/><b>Square</b> - the text wraps the rectangular box that bounds the object.</p></li>
<li><p><imgalt="Wrapping Style - Tight"src="../images/wrappingstyle_tight_toptoolbar.png"/><b>Tight</b> - the text wraps the actual object edges.</p></li>
<li><p><imgalt="Wrapping Style - Through"src="../images/wrappingstyle_through_toptoolbar.png"/><b>Through</b> - the text wraps around the object edges and fills the open white space within the object. To apply this effect, use the <b>Edit Wrap Boundary</b> option from the right-click menu.</p></li>
<li><p><imgalt="Wrapping Style - Top and bottom"src="../images/wrappingstyle_topandbottom_toptoolbar.png"/><b>Top and bottom</b> - the text is only above and below the object.</p></li>
<li><p><imgalt="Wrapping Style - In front"src="../images/wrappingstyle_infront_toptoolbar.png"/><b>In front</b> - the object overlaps the text.</p></li>
<li><p><imgalt="Wrapping Style - Behind"src="../images/wrappingstyle_behind_toptoolbar.png"/><b>Behind</b> - the text overlaps the object.</p></li>
<p>If you select the <b>Square</b>, <b>Tight</b>, <b>Through</b>, or <b>Top and bottom</b> style, you will be able to set up some additional parameters - <b>Distance from Text</b> at all sides (top, bottom, left, right). To access these parameters, right-click the object, select the <b>Advanced Settings</b> option and switch to the <b>Text Wrapping</b> tab of the object <b>Advanced Settings</b> window. Set the required values and click <b>OK</b>.</p>
<p>If you select a wrapping style other than <b>Inline</b>, the <b>Position</b> tab is also available in the object <b>Advanced Settings</b> window. To learn more on these parameters, please refer to the corresponding pages with the instructions on how to work with <ahref="../UsageInstructions/InsertAutoshapes.htm#position"onclick="onhyperlinkclick(this)">shapes</a>, <ahref="../UsageInstructions/InsertImages.htm#position"onclick="onhyperlinkclick(this)">images</a> or <ahref="../UsageInstructions/InsertCharts.htm#position"onclick="onhyperlinkclick(this)">charts</a>.</p>

Right-click the object, select the <b>Wrapping Style</b> option from the contextual menu and click the <b>Edit Wrap Boundary</b> option. Drag wrap points to customize the boundary.
