[Solved] Align stacked frames at their top line
In my workflow it is often required to insert multiple small images with captions in document.
I like to place them 3 in a row. The simplest way is to use a table:
This looks good, but I'm not completely like the idea of tables, because, as I understand, it will clutter navigator and index of tables. Also, I don't like tables because rearrangement of images becomes very inflexible. So, stacked frames, each 33 % of paragraph width, probably will be better solution. Currently, it looks like this:
The problem with example above is that frames vertically aligned at bottom. While I want to align them at their top line. (But if I click on the frame, and then click "Alignment" and "Base line at top", it will not change anything. Strange).
Desired result:
Somehow, with a lot of clicking and copy and pasting I achieved it, as shown in the third image, but I still cannot figure out how to reproduce it again. Any ideas ? )

I do not think that is a valid reason - tables do not "clutter navigator and index of tables".john1320 wrote:This looks good, but I'm not completely like the idea of tables, because, as I understand, it will clutter navigator and index of tables.
Anchor images To Paragraph, choosing the paragraph mark in the table cell with the image.john1320 wrote:I don't like tables because rearrangement of images becomes very inflexible.
Right-click a Frame > Frame > Type ..., and set the Position - Vertical settings to be the same for all three frames. They are now aligned at the top.

Re: Align stacked frames at their top line
Hi! I'm sorry for delay in answer. (I just haven't access to computer these days). The problem is currently "resolved", because anyway, I use a lot of tables to create nested "blocks".
Your solution is very interesting, I sure it will be useful for me and another users. Thanks!
