wrapping text around images?

I know about Revolution's imageSource property and note that an image bigger than the character it's replacing will obviously take up more room (esp. height) than the remaining lines of text. Is there any way to include an image within a field and have the text "wrap around" the image, so that all lines of text are the same "height"?

Alternatively, is there something like a windowShape property for objects (like fields)? (That way the field could have a "hole" in it for the image.)

You could try playing around with a group, a graphics object and blends; but that will not help wrapping the text as it won't know about the hole.

For more information on using groups and blends for soft clipping, see this old blog post by Mark Waddingham: http://www.revdeveloper.com/include/blo ... p=4#more-4
