I messed up my microphone settings in this video, so I apologize for the clipped words.
In this tutorial, I explain how to manually add a "text wrap," or float to your eBook images, especially when this eBook has been exported from Adobe InDesign. I use Sigil Epub Editor to play with the code on the back-end and quickly add a "float" property, which allows the body text to flow around an image and its caption, using Classes that have already been generated by InDesign.
