You can easily add a image placeholder over selected body columns, e.g. to a block with headline and body columns, but without image box.

Add image placeholder over selected columns

1.On a page opened on the Pages main tab in Fred4, select one or more body columns above which you want to add an image placeholder.

2.Press SHIFT+CTRL+I, or right-click and then select Add Image To, or click the image icon on the Article Frames toolbar.

Fred4 adds a image box on top of the selected columns, and activates the text wrap. Initially, Fred4 attempts to add a image in the proportion of 4:3. Should it become too high for the available space, then it adjusts the height to a suitable value, leaving a decent space below the image.

If the auto-caption personal preference is enabled, a menu pops up, prompting you to select on which position you want the caption frame to be drawn.

Note

Placeholders won't work when placing images with clipping path.
