...or when you use Anchoring Position: Outside Column or Outside Text Frame.

Lea, a tip that I picked up from this list in my early days with FM is 
to put anchored frames in their own dedicated paragraphs.  This approach 
gives you a lot of control over positioning and spacing, keeping 
captions with their figures, etc. because you have all the options of 
the pgf tag definition at your disposal.  You can create various tags 
with different alignments, indentations, Next Pgf specifications, space 
above/below, etc. as needed.
