Hi,
  When I use \placefigure[left] with some test, the text wraps around
the figure. But if the paragraph, contains some formula, it does not
wrap even after the figure is complete. How can I prevent such a
behaviour.
btw, can you make three (or more) examples: (yes|nocheck|text) with 
left/bottom/fallback placement for the testsuits (see other threads)
I tried playing around with the fallback option, but had unexpected 
results. When I give fallback=left (does that make sense?) I get text 
in the right margin!! See example below.
