When you unlock the anchor, the picture is no longer anchored to a specific location or paragraph and will remain next to the image. You will also notice that the anchor symbol will remain to the left of the start of the paragraph, regardless of the picture’s position. Locking the anchor means that even if you keep changing the position of the image, it stays anchored to a specific paragraph. You also have the option of locking the anchor If you were to move the paragraph to another page, the picture would move too, but to the exact location on a new page. Here, you can pick ‘Fix position on page.’ If you were to try moving the paragraph (put the cursor at the beginning of the section and press enter), the picture would no longer move with the paragraph. You can click it, and wrapping options will appear. Suppose you want to keep the picture fixed to one location or position.
