Text wrap and repelling settings

[bwood]

I've always found the Xara approach to text wrap rather confusing. One setting is a right-click on an image with the dialogue "repel text under". Then a separate pop up right click "repelling and anchoring" - then the settings.

It appears to me that one would chose the first "repel text under" - then move to "repel and anchoring" for the settings. I usually use a combination of both to achieve the results I really want.

Also if one wants to flow text around a pic, the text must be above the pic in the same layer, and vice versa.

As I said - I usually have to fiddle around with both settings - and for me at least - its a far longer process than just knowing what one has to do.

Perhaps just me - but there must be an easier approach than the one I take.
