problem with text box "jumping" in graphic

F

fran

I'm having the same problem! Not only that, I sometimes
lose the graphic or text box when I place the material in
tabular form. My program also freezes constantly! If you
get an answer, I sure would like to be in on the
information. I am designing business cards and I am
wasting an incredible amount of time. Thanks so much!By
the way, have you tried unlocking graphic or text box
from text? It didn't work for me all the time. 1. Click
on your graphic or text box. 2. Go to FORMAT. At bottom
click on 'picture', 'graphic', or other item. When you
get to the changing screeen deselect 'move with text'.I
think it is on the acvanced screen. Box is at bottom
of 'picture' screen. Hope this helps.

These articles are informative but do not explain the
behavior I am seeing. I cannot simply drag & drop the
text box to where I want it in my drawing. It jumps
upwards multiple lines.
Is this an error in the program? If I convert the text
box to a frame...can I still place it where I want in my
drawing?
