Problem

Solutions: A customer was unable to move a WordPerfect graphic image to the left or right side of the graphics box in the graphics editor (Alt-F9, 1, 2, #, 9, 1). They could move the graphic some distance to the left using the arrow keys or option 1, but they could not move it all of the way to the left. If the user exited graphic edit, changed the size of the graphic (e.g., Set Height/Auto Width) and re-entered graphic edit, the graphic would be gone. The graphic would reappear, distorted, if the user moved the arrow keys or Ctrl-Home to position the graphic to the right. One advantage to this was the user could then move the graphic to the left side and even off of the screen. WordPerfect is working as designed. The program appears to be retaining the original size/dimension of the graphic as was shown when first edited. The problem was caused by changing the dimensions and setting them manually. Users can work around the situation by allowing WP to auto-select the size of the graphic before entering the graphic editor. The graphic will once again appear distorted, but the graphic will display correctly when the user scales the graphic on the x-axis. Once the graphic is scaled, it can be moved to the far left side or out of the box.
