examples of picture position
I don't understand, which position you are missing. I have attached a document, which shows different positions, which are possible now. But you inserted the pictures manually right? This RFE is to automate the process : 1. define a caution paragraph style that automatically inserts a big red caution image next to the text 2. define an hint paragraph style that automatically inserts an helper image next to the text 3. define a mandatory step paragraph style that automatically inserts whatever pictogram is associated with this etc In an heavily formatted tech document you quickly tire of the manual insertion after the tenth pictogram. When you're asked to re-style the doc a few years later with a new generation of images you get mad. Up to now you can use autotexts to generate such paragraph. But you want to have the picture included in styles, so that you can chance easily the picture for many paragraphs at the same time later on. Seems to be a useful feature.

Approximation of the intended effect
The closest I got to the desired effect is the attached test document. The result is achieved by subverting border and background attributes (thus they can not be used in conjunction with this tech) Positioning of the picture is very limited You can only associate images to the style. When so many standard pictograms/basic forms are defined in unicode and available in professional quality dingbat fonts this is also limitating. Reassigned to requirements. Could be a useful feature to have an object connected to a paragraph style. |
