Making text paragraph follow an image or shape

[WilliamsMJ]

Ok like the title say I was wondering if corel draw can make a paragraph follow an image to the left. Say like I have a silohuette on the left and I want the text paragraph to follow the outline but the text on the right to stay in line with the verticle line of the box. I know other programs can do this but am not sure what terminology to use for asking the question. Is there a way to manipulate the text frame? The sad thing is, I have beem messing with corel draw since version 5. LOL Thanks for any help.

To wrap paragraph text around an object or text 
1.   Select the object or text around which you want to wrap text. 

2.   Click Window  Dockers  Properties. 

3.   In the Object properties docker, click the General tab. 

4.   Choose a wrapping style from the Wrap paragraph list box. 

 If you want to change the amount of space between wrapped text and the object or text, change the value in the Text wrap offset box. 

5.   Click the Text tool  , and drag to create a paragraph text frame over the object or text. 

6.   Type text in the paragraph text frame. 

 

•   You can wrap existing paragraph text around a selected object by applying a wrapping style to the object and dragging the paragraph text frame over the object.
