Suggestion: Add informations about default anchor in [1], for example:
"To Character: ... This is the default anchor for images, ... and ..."


> B) Topic Alignment
I don't have enough insights to that topic. But perhaps information about
alignment could be part of [2]

I couldn't find an overview about different options for wrapping. this might
include informtations about default wrap for different objects.

Additional suggestions:
Help [2] says: "You can position an anchored item by dragging the item to
another location." More precise would be: "You can position an anchored item by
dragging the item or the anchor itself to another location. It's also possible
to use arrow keys."
