Im­ages

Any fig­ure can be con­vert­ed to an im­age, which can ap­pear in­de­pen­dent­ly or as an in­line im­age. To con­vert a fig­ure to an im­age, click on the fig­ure to se­lect it, then click on the Lo­cal Set­tings icon along the left side of your screen.

Click on the Fig­ure menu:

Next, click on Con­vert to In­line Im­age:

The fig­ure be­comes an im­age that can be re­sized if need­ed. To re­size the im­age, click on it to se­lect it, then click on the Im­age menu:

From here, you can re­size the im­age by ad­just­ing the point size ei­ther up or down ac­cord­ing­ly. Click out­side the point size field to make the change.

To change the im­age to an in­line im­age, sim­ply place your cur­sor where you want the im­age to ap­pear in the text and press the delete key un­til the im­age moves in­line with the text.

You can con­vert any im­age back to a fig­ure. Se­lect the im­age by click­ing on it, then click the Im­age menu in Lo­cal Set­tings and click on Con­vert to Fig­ure (shown in Fig­ure 10.5 above).
