Hi On the subject of "Anchoring" I have been creating a 16 page brochure for my company. This has involved copying background pictures and text boxes with shaded, partly transparent backgrounds etc. I often have to move backgrounds from one page to another but each time, the "anchor to" becomes a major problem as it changes and each item has to be manually changed to "page", which is very time consuming. Is there a way to either set this permanently or deactivate it for the current session? Kind regards David I've linked 1 file to this email: 06 MC368-BSE & MC-5S pic LHOrgan & piano.odt (12.1 MB)YouSendIt http://www.yousendit.com/download/TEhXTG16TStrUmtaQ2NUQw Mozilla Thunderbird makes it easy to share large files over email.
