Leslie Richelle Posted January 1, 2019 Share Posted January 1, 2019 Converting a book from InDesign to Affinity Publisher (ID to PDF to AP) I discovered that some images wouldn't word wrap. Comparing a png that did wrap with one that didn't, I could not find any rhyme or reason until I opened both in Affinity Design: the one that didn't had a transparent background. Easy enough to fix, but it left me wondering if this was a bug or just mildly interesting? Quote Beginning to believer be, in all things Affinity.

fde101 Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 Is it only the transparent parts that are not wrapping? I would expect that depending on the wrap mode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leslie Richelle Posted January 2, 2019 Author Share Posted January 2, 2019 Good call, but no. A graphic and some text on a transparent background can be dragged all over the page with all kinds of wrap settings and the text on the page doesn't even notice the graphic, the graphic's text, or its transparent background.. Soon as I take off the transparency in AP, save the file and relink or embed it (doesn't matter which) word wrap works as advertised. I can even group the transparent version with a text-frame caption, invoke word wrap, and the caption pushes text around while the graphic goes unnoticed. Remove transparency and everything works.
