I can't move text on top of an object

Hi there. No matter what I do with ''send to back'' or ''bring forward,'' or text wrap or the Ctrl+B function and check the little ''ignore text wrap'' box, I cannot get my text to show on top of a picture I imported. The text will appear in the text box to the left of the picture, but then runs right under the picture.



Can someone help?



Thanks!

Sounds like the picture is on a higher layer.

I don't use layers; haven't advanced that far yet. Oh, I have Windows and CS3.

When you check ''ignore text wrap'', are you sure that it's the text frame with the errant text in it you are selecting?



If you want the text to overprint the picture, you probably don't need text wrap applied to the picture. So check it's

turned off, and then check there isn't another frame there with text wrap turned on.

Sounds like this is an anchored object that's set prior to the anchor point in the text.

Or it might be on the master page. Master items are behind live page items on the same layer.
