The drawing canvas works for me better than grouping. There's some bug or
other in my printer driver that occasionally hides callout text in grouped
objects - doesn't happen when I use the canvas to "group" things. I'm happy
with the canvas.
I can easily create the canvas then drag my drawings onto it - but the new
canvas immediately inserts itself into the page layout (shoving everything
else aside) and then hides itself when I try to drag my existing things onto
it - it's a fair bit of guesswork. The canvas boundaries don't make
themselves evident unless it's selected.
What I'm looking for is something that I can select an existing group and
say "create a canvas and put this on it" all in one go, so the new canvas
takes the place of the existing drawing.
Is there something in Word 2002 that does this, or would it be a case for
the VBA group?
Any ideas?
thanks
