Graphics objects can be either "In Line With Text" or "Floating".
If you have a Floating object, it won't allow anything to be over the top of
it, unless you have checked "Allow overlap"
Your circle must be floating: shapes can't be inline with text. Your other
graphic may or may not be: use Format>Object to check.
Hope this helps
Every time I go to insert a circle or other simple object (or arrow) on top of
a graphic in word it creates a new page for the object and it does not go over
the original graphic as in all previous editions of Word. How do I insert a
circle and place it over a picture in the word document as was so easy before.
Inserting simple objects is no longer so simple. Please help.
