Windows 7, Office 2010.

Whenever I group or ungroup a figure in Word, the text wrapping is reset to "In front of text". I have "Top and bottom" selected as default, but this obviously doesn't impact this "feature" that changes the settings whenever I group or ungroup. I can of course change it at once (since the objects are all selected), but it's a hassle, and I would like to avoid doing it. Anybody have an idea how? As stated, default wrapping is already set, and doesn't affect this behaviour.
