I was unable to find a post with a similar problem, but I'm having some problems with text wrap. In the screenshot attached, you can see I have the construction text wrapped around my image. I would like to add a text box featuring a description of the picture but I can't figure out how to do so with the text wrap in effect. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Hi Dough

It is point text

Convert it to area text. Text wrap does not work on point text.

There are a couple of ways you could do it. I would add anchor points to existing text wrap to accommodate the additional text box.

Hi I have also problem with Adobe Illustrator 2024 and Text wrap.

Here I made a video about it: https://youtu.be/CkT_WFl0Ntg?si=ri-czH8oHNCPboJC

Make another layer in the file on top of the layer with the text wrap. Put your box in there.
