This was a bit easier to understand :=)

I totally agree that the "run around the frame"-option should be moved
up.

However, there should be a radio button for "Text will run around the
frame", as it still is not clear that these "Left", "Right" (..) selects
"Text will run around frame".

So:

    ( ) Text will run through this frame

    (x) Text will run around the frame
        ( ) On the left side
        ( ) On the right side
        (x) On the side with most space

    ( ) Text will not run around this frame

The sub-options are grayed out until "around the frame" is selected.

Keep the icons as in example3.png.

The option "Longest side" should be "On the side with most space" 
or something like that, that's the actual effect.

(the side is not the 'longest', it's the 'widest' side..)
