> Is the photo and textbox inside a frame? The photo got there via Insert -> Picture -> From File. The textbox was part of the Slide Layout. I dragged the photo to the dimensions that I wanted (centered in the slide, about 80% of the slide's area) and I tried dragging the textbox over it, but the textbox is stubbornly remaining beneath the photo.

I wish to arrange the textbox to be in front of (on top of) the photo. > I'm just not sure what you want to do. Right off the top of my head, I > would click the textbox to select it.

This is the only way to arrange the slide such that the textbox is accessible (can be focused with the mouse).
