Notebook view Auto shape odd behaviour

[Sibi]

Hi,
If you paste an autoshape in notebook view and add text to it, it
starts behaving erratic to move commands.

After selecting the shape WITH TEXT, any arrow key would ONLY move it
upwards!! It moves as it should without text.

Very irritating bug - makes it very hard to have text at only
particular place if you need.

Hi Sibi,

I don't work in Notebook view, but after experimenting with it, I find that
it works pretty much the same as Normal view where AutoShapes are concerned.
I'm not sure exactly what you're trying to do, but select the AutoShape and
go to Format> AutoShape> Layout. You can't make an AutoShape "Inline with
text" but try Square or Tight. Is that what you're looking for?
