PostPosted: Fri Mar 21, 2008 11:57 am    Post subject: Writer: Text over graphic

I have a graphic that I have set to the background and adjusted the transparency so I can type over it. I have sent the graphic to the back.

I am successful typing over the graphic. When I click back on the text to highlight it, however, I always select the graphic. I'm satisfied with the way the graphic looks and is placed on the page. Now I want to just edit the text going over the top of it. So far I can't go back and highlight, I must delete the text, set the formatting I want and then type.

There must be a way to stay in text editing mode, but I can't find it. TIA.

As a workaround: can you click on text just above or below the graphic and the use direction keys to get to the bit of text you want to edit?

Best wishes,
Oscar

You might have a look at this page in NeoWiki. It gives info about inserting an image behind text, in Writer and in Calc.

Hope that can help.

No, I cannot click above or below the graphic because I have stretched the boundary so the graphic covers the entire column as much as possible.

Thanks for the link. I double checked my settings and it appears I have done what the wiki describes. I am reading the Solveig Haugland article referenced at the end.
