Graphic is forced to upper left

[TopRung]

Hello,

I have document (manual) that I am writing. It is in Landscape mode, and
the page setup is Top, Bottom, Right=0.5" and Left=1", gutter=0".

I am on about page 30 fo the document, and all of the sudden when I place
graphics in the first column, when they get anywhere close to the top of the
left column, they get "sucked" into the the absolute top left of the page. I
can not move them; if I do move it with my mouse, it pops back to the upper
left again. I am unable to move the graphic using the keyboard. WHY?

This is obviosuly some autocorrecting or something, but i can not find out
why it is doing this and why it didn't do it before on previous pages. But
since it started, it happens all the time.

also, about the grpahics: It is a PNG filetype and I have it set to
LAYOUT=Square.

PLEASE HELP! Thank you.

Well i fixed it!

I had to force a page break before the image (or at the end of the previous
page). Why not having the break FORCES the image to absolute upper left ..
beats me!!

<Some insight would be wonderful if you have it>

I've had this problem before. I discovered that I needed to change the
layout. So try this:
click on the graphic wanted
go to format/picture
click on layout
click on "in front of test"

This way you can move the graphic wherever you want it within your document.
