Moving and Placing Images in Word Document

Following our last post on how to add images and clip art to your document, you might find it difficult moving the image from point to another. If you've used graphics applications before, you might expect to be able to simply drag the image and drop it where you need it. Though you can drag images and clip Art from one place to another in your document but you need to do something first.
This thing you have to do is called "TEXT WRAPPING", to text wrap
1. Left click on the image you want to move to make sure it is selected and then right click; a dialog like image below will appear.
2. Locate the word "wrap text" from the opened dialog and put your cursor over it
3. A new list of options will appear, click on any except "Behind Text or In Front of Text" and you'll be able to move the image.
N.B Text wrap as Behind text will move the image to the back of whatever you might have typed. If you want it that way, then select it. It is good and useful depending on what you're typing.
Text wrap as in front of text will move the image over the typed text and will cover what you have typed. Goodluck if you wish to use it.

ANOTHER WAY TO MOVE AN IMAGE

This method is  also text wrapping, don't think it'll be something new
1. Select the image you want to move and a tab called "format" will appear from the group of tabs above in your Msword interface. (see image below)
2. Left Click on the format tab and a new ribbon will appear
3. When the new ribbon opens, left click on the small arrow below "Wrap Text" (See image above) and select your desired wrap style. Hint: I usually use text wrap as "Tight or Through".
