When I activate Textwrap on all sides of an object, it comes up with a default value at 3.358 mm Is there any way to change that default value

You can try starting ID, but not opening a document. Set the wrap you want and quit. Then see if the wrap you set holds. That's how you set defrault font, but I don't know if it will work for text wrap, but you can try.

Thanks but I have tried that one, dosn't work
 
JMgalvin is right so probably you did something wrong.

Don't think that wh"en you change things without selecting anything that the changes will apply to the text wraps that are already applied.

Normally, when you change any settings without a document open, those changes will apply for all what follows.

In CS2 you can vary those settings by creating various object styles. In CS1 you could use the library to create various offsets for text wraps and then dragging them into your library.

Sorry guys i didn't mention that I'm working with CS1 in this case. And it dosn't work here. I am aware of the normal procedure to setting defaults

So I still have the problem
 
Just tried it on CS1 on Mac. Opened the text wrap window with no document open. Picked wrap bounding bos. The default was zero. Set it to .0625 inches all around. Closed the text wrap window and quit ID.

Launched ID, atarted a new doc and opened the text wrap box. The setting remained at .0625 as I had set it. It did not revert to the original zero.

Remember, if you open a document where text wrap was set, the wrap widow will show that setting.

That is correct but if you switch just one time, to get another kind of texwrap and back. The old value pops up again! Must be a bug!

thank you guys for tryin'
