It seems to me the canvas is useful if you want to do a drawing with multiple
objects and have them behave in the document was one picture without having
to fiddle with grouping, etc. but, for single images, I can't see it doing
anything that you couldn't do with a floating image before.

Shame it's bug when trying to be compatible with docs from previous versions
of Word (see my earlier post).

Hey, if you are getting nothing but good from them, good for you!

Well looking through this discussion group regarding the Drawing Canvas
facility, i feel as though i am the only person who likes it. Since
upgrading from 2000 to 2003 it has meant that i can quickly and easily insert
photos into the canvas background without having to resize the photo first in
A.N.Other photo editing package.

However, i do wonder if i can change the default size of the canvas so that
whenever i insert a new canvas it opens in 10.16cm x 13.55cm size???

Thank you in anticipation.
