Word 2007 - pasting onto drawing canvas

[Geoff Budd]

I've read a number of threads re the problems of grouping different objects
in Word 2007 (e.g. pictures and shapes), and the general advice seems to be
to insert them all into a drawing canvas. That is fine if you are using the
Insert command for pictures, but it doesn't seem to work if you try to Paste
a picture into Word 2007.
Specifically, if I take a screen shot by pressing the Prt Scr button on my
keyboard, and then try to Paste it into a Word 2007 document that has a
drawing canvas, it places it in the document but not inside the drawing
canvas. This means that I cannot effectively group it with other graphic
objects in the drawing canvas.
Does anyone know how to force Paste to put a clipboard object inside a Word
2007 drawing canvas? By the way, I am using the default Word 2007 option to
insert/paste pictures "in front of text" (i.e. not "in line with text", which
I understand can cause a problem with grouping).
I wonder if Microsoft appreciate what a huge step backwards from Word 2003
to Word 2007 they have taken in grouping objects. After all, you can still
group different types of objects in Powerpoint 2007 - why the difference for
Word 2007?

[Suzanne S. Barnhill]

I think if you want to insert the picture in the drawing canvas you will
have to use In Line With Text so that the graphic is inserted at the
insertion point (that is, in the canvas) rather than anchored to it. But
ISTR having had some limited success with dragging a picture into the
canvas, too (after changing the wrapping to inline).

Hello Suzanne,

Unfortunately using In Line With Text doesn't work either. Also, it won't
let me drag the pasted picture into the canvas.
Having experimented a bit more, the only thing that does seem to work is to
paste the picture into a Text Box, then group the text box with other
objects. How counter-intuitive is that?
Come on Microsoft - have another look at this!

I have nothing constructive to add , except to say that I concur with Geoff! It is now (the year) 2011, and this 'bug' has not been addressed. This is exceedingly frustrating.

I have encoutered the same issue. What you want to do is insert the drawing canvas, then insert the picture you want in your word document. Then proceed to right click on the picture, click on "format picture", then click on the "layout" tab and select the "in front of text option". Once you click on OK,you will then be able to copy and paste the pic into the drawing canvas. Hope this helped.

Hello,

The way to work with canvas would be as follows;
1. Insert a drawing canvas into a MSWord page.
2. Drag or Copy/Paste a picture/screenshot into the same word document.
3. Cut the picture, then right click inside the drawing canvas and paste it.
This will add the picture into the canvas and will move around with canvas maintaining its position inside the canvas.

Rak

[Cuky]

> Actually this also doesn't work. I have to paste the image into a textbox that is already in the drawing canvas and then it works. Stupid bug...

[Choerudin Choerudin]

Helloo... I also facing the same problem when I try to edit shape from old Ms.Word file which I copy to my new file / another Ms.Word file. Instead of copy canvas area from old file to new one and then edit, I found the way to work with it:
1. Insert new drawing canvas in the new file.
2. Copy the selected or all shape from the old canvas area.
3. Paste the shape to the new canvas area.

hope it helps.
