Steps to Reproduce Problem

 * 2) Position the insertion point at the top of either column 2 or 3 on any page of the document. From the Insert menu, choose Frame.
 * 3) Select the frame. From the Format menu, and select Frame.
 * 4) Format the frame's Horizontal position to be centered Relative To Column.
 * 5) Choose the OK button.

The frame moves to the top of the previous column.
