+will move with the text as any other inline frame would.</para>
+<para>If you want to have more control over where the formula is placed, you can convert it to a framed formula by clicking on the 
+frame surrounding the formula with the &RMB;.  A popup menu will appear.  Simply select <guilabel>Inline Frame</guilabel> and the formula will 
+now be a freely movable frame. </para>
+<para>Once converted to a freely movable frame, you can <link linkend="move-frame">move the frame</link>
