    I’m having trouble with a text wrap in just one part of the document I’m working on.
    The object/image is set to a text wrap (which works when I test it on other pages) but not when used next to the text I want to place it on.

    I’ve deduced that the problem must be with the text frame but can’t find any settings to fix the problem.

    Any ideas?

    Can you select your text frame? IOf not then it is on a master page and you need to unlock it form the master page (Shift Ctrl click on the item).

    All your settings for text wrap are in palette accessed by: window >> text warp

    Yes I could select the text frame, and couldn’t find any evidence that anything was from the master. However I did end up fixing it the long way round – I recreated the object and re-inserted it into the document. It must have had some properties applied to it that I couldn’t figure out. thx though

    I know this it WAY too late to help you, but the problem was probably that the text frame in question had “Ignore Text Wrap” checked in the Text Frame Options dialog. Maybe it will be of help to someone else checking this post…
