The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 6.0 for DOS

Problem

Symptoms: When the user deletes text on page one of balanced newspaper columns with a graphics box code at the top of page two attached to the bottom of the page, the text will not reformat for page one, and the graphics box code acts as a "dam" and won't allow the text to flow back up onto page one. Solutions: WP 6.0 handles graphics boxes differently than prior releases of WordPerfect. Any page-anchored graphics box MUST appear on the same page as the box code to prevent graphics from bumping (which was a big concern for users in WPWin 5.2).

In this case, the code for the graphics box is at the top of the page and the box is anchored to the bottom of the page. If text from the previous page is deleted, it would cause the code to move with the text to the previous page. WP will not allow the code to appear on a different page from the box, so a Soft Page Break [SPg] code is inserted before the box code. This causes a blank space on the bottom of the previous page.

For the text to "fill-in" correctly, the user can either place the graphics box code further down the page on which it is to appear, or place the graphics box code in a Delay code on the previous page. Delay codes are intended to be used for cases like this so that WordPerfect can correctly "fill-in" text during editing.
