Question [Resolved] Problem with "Word"

I just had to format and re-install everything but i cant get Word exactley how it was.

When i insert a picture i used to be able to drag it left to right or up and down, ie increasing/decreasing the size. When i did this it smoothley followed the curser allowing me to make small changes to its size.

Now ive re-installed office 2003 pro, when i try to increase the size it seems to jump a couple of mm at a time and therefore not allowing me to get the exact size im aiming for.

Ive looked through options and its set for mm but i cant figure how to get it how it used to be.

I hope ive explained ok and would much appreciate any help.

Thanx
Paul

Default Re: Problem with "Word"

Hello Paul,

By default, your images will "Snap to grid" all edges and movement on the screen. You'll need to turn this off:

- Go to View, Toolbars followed by Customize.
- Under the category of "Drawing", scroll down on the right until you see an item called "Grid".
- Drag the grid icon to anywhere on your current toolbar at the top of the screen.
- When you click on the grid icon, you will see "Snap objects to grid" ticked. Untick, and all your problems will disappear.
