Problem

Symptoms: When you create a graphics box, choose 9 for Edit in the Definition:Text Box screen to enter text, and enter a Line Numbering code first before any text with the "Position of Number from Left Edge" at .6", the numbering overwrites the text inside the box. This causes a problem for one user who is bringing files with a lot of boxes over from WP 5.0. Solutions: Development says, "The same sort of thing happens if you set your left and right margins to 0" in the main document and turn line numbering on without adjusting the position from left edge. To make it work in a box (where the default margins are 0"), set a left margin of (for instance) .4", turn line numbering on with position from left set to (for instance) .3". Everything then looks fine." In WP 5.1 you can use a L/R Margin code inside the graphics box to adjust the "margins" inside the box. The graphics box itself is now treated somewhat like a logical page. One other side effect of this new feature is if the graphics box contains Inside Border Space, the margins will be ADDED to this space.
