james948 Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 Hey there, Am I doing something wrong? Pinning (floating) works fine but I'd like to use Pinning (inline) to make sure that the drop quotes go before certain paragraphs. When I tell it to inline-pin the text wrap is lost.

walt.farrell Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 I don't understand what you're trying to accomplish; sorry. However, pinning "inline" is used to make the item act like a standard character or string of characters in a line of text. If that's not your intention, you probably shouldn't be using it.

To clarify; I'm trying to keep my pull quotes in between certain paragraphs so as I make changes, the pull quotes move with the text and keep themselves between the paragraphs they're associated with.

Because you haven't adjusted the Leading Override for that line of text (Character panel) to account for all the extra space that's needed for that very tall character you're inserting.
