How to center a graphic vertically next to a block of text?

Insert the graphic into the paragraph that is inside the cell. If you want, you can then type Esc m p, which shrink wraps the anchored frame around the graphic inside; this also puts the anchored frame At Insertion Point. If you do NOT do this step, then select the anchored frame and set its postion to At Insertion Point.

Then in the paragraph designer, select the Table Cell tab and select the Cell Vertical Alignment to be Middle, which aligns the paragraph in the middle of the cell vertically. Depending upon your paragraph format settings, you may have to change the line spacing to NOT fixed.

Good luck,

If I understand you correctly, I think the “table” approach is the way to go.

I presume you have an empty paragraph in one cell, to which the graphic is anchored?

You should be able to centre this paragraph vertically in its cell (Paragraph Designer > Table Cell > Cell Vertical Alignment). The the graphic should follow the anchor. May need a bit of adjustment to get the graphic centred in relation to its anchor paragraph.

You can also use the Runaround properties and set your text to "Don't Run Around". That is something we finally figured out....just depends on what kind of formating you want for your text.
