Changing indentation of a graphic within an anchored frame
Is there a shortcut for changing the indentation of a graphic within an anchored frame? Our FM template is being modified to change the indentation of lots of paragraph tags, and we will all have to manually modify the indentation of almost all of our graphics - unless you happen to know of a framescript, macro, shortcut, or anything that can save us from this colossal task...

Just to clarify, we like our graphics aligned with the text in the paragraph above (not centered on the page). "Is there a shortcut for changing the indentation of a graphic within an anchored frame?

Changing indentation of a graphic within an anchored frame
Hi Marta I guess the anchoring position of these anchored frames is "Below Current Line"? In that case, I think the only option you have is a Framescript which changes the width of the frame and the "offset from left" setting of the graphic within the frame. An other (and better) option is to put the anchored frames in an empty paragraph (you can also do this with a framescript), which you give a dedicated paragraph tag, for example z_anchor. You set the line spacing of this paragraph to "variable": Paragraph Designer > Basic tab > Line Spacing > clear the Fixed check box. The line spacing will then automatically adjust itself to the height of the anchored frame. Now, if you need to change the positioning of the graphics, all you have to do is simply change the setting in the Paragraph Designer for z_anchor, for example indent, but also space above or below, alignment...
