Hello Patrick

Yes, I think it is a typical use case to have a morph (e.g. picture)
centered without text in front or at the back of it.

However this might be achieved by having a
    Character lf
after the preceding text and also after the morph (first attachment).

I wonder why the text does not reflow after a change in size of the
morph by means of a resize halo.

Best
Hannes
