Align a floating image

You can nudge a selected floating image one pixel at a time, using the arrow keys on the keyboard,
so that it appears where you want it. You can also align floating images horizontally and vertically.
While you can set the basic alignment of an image using the buttons of the Shape Wrap palette, as
soon as you adjust the image by nudging it using the arrow keys or drag it using the mouse or
trackpad, the Alignment buttons indicate that it is no longer considered “set” as far as the
Alignment buttons are concerned.

1. Select the image you want to align.
2. Click the Alignment option that represents what you want from the buttons in the Shape Wrap

palette as explained in Table 4 below.
