Default Is there a Word equivalent to "Advance To" such as found in Word .

I want to always place a figure title the same distance from the bottom of a
page regardless of the size of the image that is placed on the page. In Word
Perfect, I could "advance to" and got to a given distance from the bottom of
the page to enter my title.

There is an Advance field code; but simpler for this purpose is a textbox --
remove the fill and border, then position the textbox exactly where you need
it.

A frame would be a better choice. It can also be placed precisely relative
to the page, but it has the advantage that it can be included in a style. So
you can define the frame formatting as part of your figure caption style.
Not to mention that text inside a text box will not be "seen" by Word in
generating a Table of Figures.
