Inline Images
As of WordPress with blocks, to add inline images within text do this:
* Insert an image block (+ sign in black box below in text entry area > Image
* Upload or add image to it (above will display a box with “Upload”, “Media Library” and “Insert from URL” options
* Move the image to the desired paragraph using its blocks up or down arrows (visible in a menu bar which pops us when the image is clicked)
* Move (float) the image left or right within the text in the paragraph (This is achieved via the “Change alignment” menu option available via the pop up menu bar which appears when the image is clicked.
