In this article, we would like to introduce you with 2 methods to center all pictures and text boxes in your Word document.

Pictures and shapes, such as text boxes, play vital important in making a wonderful document. With a growing number of images and shapes being inserted, the demand to integrate their formatting, say to center them starts to surface.

What you should know is that all pictures inserted into document is set in “In line with text” layout, while text boxes are flowing shapes. You may change the picture layout as required, but to center them you will have to consider the text wrapping. Because text formatting can be easily tampered, leaving you with a layout you don’t like.Text Boxes and Pictures in Different Layout

Therefore, we will focus on 2 ways to center “In line with text” pictures and text boxes.

Method 1: Center One Picture or Text Box Manually

To center a “In line with text” picture, follow these steps:

  1. Firstly, click on the picture to select it.
  2. Secondly, click “Center” in “Paragraph” group under “Home” tab. Or you can use the shortcuts “Ctrl+ E” instead.Select Picture->Click "Home"->Click "Center"

Then to center a text box, go through these instructions:

  1. Similarly, click on text box to have it in selection.
  2. Then click “Format” tab under “Drawing Tools”.
  3. Next click “Align” in “Arrange” group.
  4. And choose “Align Center” on its drop-down menu.Select Text Box->Click "Format"->Click "Align"->Choose "Align Center"

Method 2: Batch Center Multiple Pictures or Text Boxes Automatically

Most of us would favor an automatic process to save efforts. Here you go.

  1. First off, press “Alt+ F11” to open the VBA editor.
  2. Next click “Normal” project.
  3. Click “Insert” tab and choose “Module”.Click "Normal"->Click "Insert"->Click "Module"
  4. Then double click on the module to bring out the editing space on the right side.
  5. Next to center pictures, you paste the following codes there:
Sub CenterInLinePictures()
  Dim objInLineShape As InlineShape
  Dim objDoc As Document
 
  Set objDoc = ActiveDocument
 
  For Each objInLineShape In objDoc.InlineShapes
    objInLineShape.Select
    Selection.ParagraphFormat.Alignment = wdAlignParagraphCenter
  Next objInLineShape 
End Sub

To center all text boxes, you need the bellowing macro:

Sub CenterTextBoxes()
  Dim objDoc As Document
  Dim objTextBox As Shape
 
  Set objDoc = ActiveDocument
 
  For Each objTextBox In objDoc.Shapes
    If objTextBox.Type = msoTextBox Then
      objTextBox.RelativeHorizontalPosition = wdRelativeHorizontalPositionPage
      objTextBox.Left = wdShapeCenter
    End If
  Next objTextBox
End Sub

To center both pictures and text boxes, you will have to use this one:

Sub CenterInLinePicturesAndTextBoxes()
  Dim objInLineShape As InlineShape
  Dim objShape As Shape
  Dim objDoc As Document
 
  Set objDoc = ActiveDocument
 
  For Each objInLineShape In objDoc.InlineShapes
    objInLineShape.Select
    Selection.ParagraphFormat.Alignment = wdAlignParagraphCenter
  Next objInLineShape
 
  For Each objShape In objDoc.Shapes
    If objShape.Type = msoTextBox Then
      objShape.RelativeHorizontalPosition = wdRelativeHorizontalPositionPage
      objShape.Left = wdShapeCenter
    End If
  Next objShape
End Sub
  1. Lastly, click “Run” button or hit “F5”.Enter codes->Click "Run"Center All Pictures and Text Boxes

Lesson 22: Aligning, Ordering, and Grouping Objects

/en/word2016/text-boxes/content/

Introduction

There may be times when your documents have multiple objects, such as pictures, shapes, and text boxes. You can arrange the objects any way you want by aligning, grouping, ordering, and rotating them in various ways.

Optional: Download our practice document.

Watch the video below to learn more about arranging objects in Word.

To align two or more objects:

  1. Hold the Shift (or Ctrl) key and click the objects you want to align. In our example, we’ll select the four shapes on the right.

    selecting multiple objects

  2. From the Format tab, click the Align command, then select one of the alignment options. In our example, we’ll choose Align Right.

    selecting the align right command

  3. The objects will be aligned based on the selected option. In our example, the shapes are now aligned with each other.

    the aligned objects

Note that the Align Selected Objects option is selected by default, which allows you to align objects without moving them to a different part of the page. However, if you want to move the objects the top or bottom of the page, select Align to Page or Align to Margin before choosing an alignment option.

To distribute objects evenly:

If you have arranged your objects in a row or column, you may want them to be an equal distance from one another for a neater appearance. You can do this by distributing the objects horizontally or vertically.

  1. Hold the Shift (or Ctrl) key and click the objects you want to distribute.
  2. On the Format tab, click the Align command, then select Distribute Horizontally or Distribute Vertically.

    selecting the Distibute Vertically command

  3. The objects will be evenly spaced from one another.

    the objects after applying vertical distribution

Grouping objects

At times, you may want to group multiple objects into one object so they will stay together. This is usually easier than selecting them individually, and it also allows you to resize and move all of the objects at the same time.

To group objects:

  1. Hold the Shift (or Ctrl) key and click the objects you want to group.
  2. Click the Group command on the Format tab, then select Group.

    selecting the Group command

  3. The selected objects will now be grouped. There will be a single box with sizing handles around the entire group so you can move or resize all of the objects at the same time.

    the grouped objects

To ungroup objects:

  1. Select the grouped object. From the Format tab, click the Group command and select Ungroup.

    selecting the ungroup command

  2. The objects will be ungrouped.

    the ungrouped objects

Ordering objects

In addition to aligning objects, Word gives you the ability to arrange objects in a specific order. The ordering is important when two or more objects overlap because it determines which objects are in the front or the back.

Understanding levels

Objects are placed on different levels according to the order in which they were inserted into a document. In the example below, if we move the waves image to the beginning of the document, it covers up several of the text boxes. That’s because the image is currently on the highest—or top—level. However, we can change its level to put it behind the other objects.

an object covering up other objects on the page

To change an object’s level:

  1. Select the object you want to move. In our example, we’ll select the image of the waves.
  2. From the Format tab, click the Bring Forward or Send Backward command to change the object’s ordering by one level. In our example, we’ll select Send Backward.

    selecting Send Backward

  3. The objects will be reordered. In our example, the image is now behind the text on the left, but it’s still covering the shapes on the right.

    the re-ordered object

  4. If you want to move an object behind or in front of several objects, it’s usually faster to use Bring Forward or Send Backward instead of clicking the other ordering command multiple times.

    selecting Send to Back

  5. In our example, the image has been moved behind everything else on the page, so all of the other text and shapes are visible.

    the object moved to the back

If you have several objects placed on top of each other, it may be difficult to select an individual object. The Selection Pane allows you to easily drag an object to a different level. To view the Selection Pane, click Selection Pane on the Format tab.

opening the Selection pane

To rotate or flip an object:

If you need to turn an object so it faces a different direction, you can rotate it to the left or right, or you can flip it horizontally or vertically.

  1. With the desired object selected, click the Rotate command on the Format tab, then choose the desired rotation option. In our example, we’ll choose Flip Horizontal.

    flipping an object horiztonally

  2. The object will be rotated. In our example, we can now see the bubbles on the left that were previously hidden behind the text boxes.

    the flipped object

Challenge!

  1. Open our practice document.
  2. Scroll to page 2 and select the picture of the waves at the top of the page.
  3. Use the Rotate command to flip the waves vertically.
  4. Use the Send to Back command to move the waves behind the Martinique text box.
  5. Move the Martinique text box so it is near the bottom of the waves image.
  6. Make sure the waves picture and Martinique text box are no longer selected. Hold down the Shift key, then select the text boxes containing Cleaning, Maintenance, Repair, and Restoration.
  7. Click the Align command, and make sure the Align Selected Objects option is selected. Select Align Right and Distribute Vertically.
  8. With the text boxes still selected, group them.
  9. When you’re finished, your page should look something like this:Align Order Group Challenge

  • Hi,

    Need to align center all textboxes in my document . I can select one textbox , then click align center. But when I select all textboxes and click align center, it doesn’t work. 

    Is there something wrong with my step?  Or I have to align center all textboxes one by one?  Any other quick ways to do that ?

    Thanks in advance.

  • You could run the following macro. If you create the macro in a module in your default template Normal.dotm, you can use it in any document where you need it.

    Sub CenterTextBoxes()
        Dim shp As Shape
        Application.ScreenUpdating = False
        For Each shp In ActiveDocument.Shapes
            If shp.Type = msoTextBox Then
                shp.TextFrame.TextRange.ParagraphFormat _
                    .Alignment = wdAlignParagraphCenter
            End If
        Next shp
        Application.ScreenUpdating = True
    End Sub

  • Hi,LydiaLD

    You can use the macro to do that as above reply.

    And as you may need to center all pictures too, you can try the macro as below.

    Sub CenterInLinePicturesAndTextBoxes()
      Dim objInLineShape As InlineShape
      Dim objShape As Shape
      Dim objDoc As Document
     
      Set objDoc = ActiveDocument
     
      For Each objInLineShape In objDoc.InlineShapes
        objInLineShape.Select
        Selection.ParagraphFormat.Alignment = wdAlignParagraphCenter
      Next objInLineShape
     
      For Each objShape In objDoc.Shapes
        If objShape.Type = msoTextBox Then
          objShape.RelativeHorizontalPosition = wdRelativeHorizontalPositionPage
          objShape.Left = wdShapeCenter
        End If
      Next objShape
    End Sub
