Clipart keeps moving around in my word document

Hi,

Every time I insert a piece of Clipart into my Word document, I either delete it, because I have deleted a paragraph or when I move it, it rarely appears exactly where I want it. Can you help me please?

RE: Clipart keeps moving around in my word document

Yes I can.

When you insert Clipart (graphic) into your document you will find that the clipart anchors itself to a paragraph.

When you delete the paragraph the graphic will also be deleted. When you move the paragraph the graphic will also be moved.

To view how a graphic is anchored with a paragraph:

1) Click on graphic and turn on Show/Hide on Standard Toolbar.

2) Right click on graphic, select Format Picture, select Layout tab and choose a Wrapping style.

3) Click OK

4) Whilst clicked on the graphic you will now see the anchor in the left hand margin.

5) As you drag your graphic down the page the anchor will move down, as you move the graphic up the page the anchor will move up.

6) Keep dragging your graphic whilst watching the anchor to the position required in your document, then release mouse.


Word tip:

Check The Text Style Used

For people who use styles there is a quick way of checking which style has been used on text.

Press Shift-F1. The cursor turns to a question mark and pointer.

Click in the text you want to know about and Word opens the 'Reveal Formatting' task pane showing all the information on the style (its font, formatting and so on).
