Dear all, I would like to wrap text around two figures. I tried to use both
placefigure and starthangaround without achieving what I wanted. So I moved
towards you to get some explanations on the behavior of the commands.

I have two figures and one paragraph. If possible, I would like to place
one figure on the top left and the other on the bottom right, the text
moving smoothly in between, something like (o is figure, x text)

ooooo xxxxxxxx
ooooo xxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxx ooooo
xxxxxxxx ooooo

or even better

xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
ooooo xxxxxxxx
ooooo xxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxx ooooo
xxxxxxxx ooooo
xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I can, of course, slice the text in two pieces and use either placefigure
or hangaround but, then, there's a vertical space  between the two
paragraphs.
Related to the subject, is there way to impose a few lines before a figure
with hangaround like the second layout example?

Thanks a lot,
Flavien.
