Drawing a Spreadsheet into a Page of Text

For a quick way to get the " feel" of GoBeProductive, start a new Word Processing document and put some text on the page. Then, from the View menu turn on the Drawing Toolbar.   This toolbar will appear on the left side of the document.   Use its Spreadsheet Tool, which is the 3rd icon down from the Selection Tool arrow, and " draw" a working spreadsheet right onto that page of text.

Two Ways to Place a Graphic in Text-In-Line (Anchored) and Free-Floating

There are two ways to place a graphic in a text document - anchored, (also called in-line), or free-floating.   An anchored graphic stays in its position in the text so if you add or remove text above the graphic, the graphic moves with the text it was placed with. A free-floating graphic can be dragged around on the page.

To place a graphic into the text as in-line (anchored): Click in the text so there is a blinking insertion point, then paste.

To place a graphic into the text as Free-Floating: Click on the Selection Tool, then paste the graphic. (Note - in a Word Processing document this drops the picture on the center of the page, which might be off screen. You may need to scroll down. OR click to the left of the text margin, and then paste, and the picture will go there.)

In the above examples you can also drag and drop an icon of a file containing a graphic, or you can use the Insert File Tool to open a graphic file.
